    1/4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The maximum sum of the two cubes is 6 + 6 = 12

    The multiples of 4 until 12 are: 4, 8 and 12.

    each cube has 6 possible values, so two cubes have a total of 6 * 6 = 36 possible results

    We can have a sum of 4 with the pairs (1,3), (2,2), (3,1).

    We can have a sum of 8 with the pairs (2,6), (3,5), (4,4), (5,3), (6,2)

    We can have a sum of 12 with the pair (6,6)

    So we have a total of 9 pairs that satisfy our condition over a total of 36 possibilities, so the probability is 9 / 36 = 1/4
