    P = 125/1296

    Step-by-step explanation:

    P = Number of ways of getting only 4 at the last trial / Total number of ways

    Number of ways of getting only 4 at the last trial = 5 * 5 * 5 * 1 = 125

    (for the first three trials, all but 4 is permissible (6 - 1 = 5 ways), and

    for the last trial, only 4 is permissible (1 way)).

    Total number of ways = 6 * 6 * 6 * 6 = 1296

    P = 125/1296
