In this question, we are given a diagram of a dice with some positions labeled. The goal is to determine the number that is opposite to the number 4.

Looking at the given options, we can see that option 4 states that the number opposite to 4 is 1. To understand why this is the correct answer, we need to understand how dice are constructed.

A standard dice is a cube with six faces. The sum of any two opposite faces is always 7. So, if 4 is on one face of the dice, the face opposite to it must have a number that, when added to 4, equals 7. In this case, 3 is opposite to 4 because 4 + 3 = 7.

However, the correct answer provided is option 4, which states that the number opposite to 4 is 1. This is incorrect because 1 + 4 ≠ 7. Therefore, alert - the correct answer should be 3.
