Question

When rolling two dice, which outcome is more likely a sum of 4 or a sum of 6?

Answer 1

Count the different ways you can get a 4 on a 6 sided die, and compare that to the number of ways you can get a 6. TL;DR: it's 6.

Answer 2

the answer choices are:
A. A sum of 6 is more likely
B. They are equally likely
C. It cannot be determined
D. A sum of 4 is more likely

Answer 3

you can get a 4 with 1+3, 2+2, 2+2, and 3+1. You can get a 6 with 1+5, 2+4, 3+3, 3+3, 4+2, and 5+1. There are more ways to make 6, ergo the answer is A.
