Assuming fair dice

4 can occur only if each die shows a 1: prob=1/6^4

5 can occur if 1 die shows 2 and the rest show 1: prob=COMBIN(4,1)/6^4

6 can occur if 1 die shows 3 and the rest show 1: prob=COMBIN(4,1)/6^4
or if 2 dice show 2 and the rest show 1: prob=COMBIN(4,2)/6^4
(add the two probabilities)

7 can occur if 1 die shows 4 and the rest show 1: prob=COMBIN(4,1)/6^4
or if 1 die shows 3, 1 die shows 2 and the rest show 1:
prob=MULTINOMIAL(1,1,2)/6^4
or if 3 dice show 2 and 1 die shows 1: prob=COMBIN(4,1)/6^4
