Well I'm supposing it's a 6 sided dye. Since there are 6 sides it's a 1 out of 6 chance or 16% chance that you would roll a 4.
The odds against rolling a 4, the complementary event, are 5 out of 6, a chance
of: 1 - 0.1666.. = 0.8333... ≈ 83.3%.

Although statisticians usually use the likelihood or probability rather than odds, the odds of an even happening is the ratio of the likelihood that the event does occur to the likelihood that the even does not occur.Thus the probability of rolling a 6 with a single throw of a fair cubic die is 1/6 whereas the odds for rolling a six are 1:5.
