4 possible outcomes for the 4-sided die; for each of those 4 possible outcome, 6 possible outcomes for the 6-sided die.

Total number of possible outcomes: 4*6=24.

Fundamental Counting Principle: The number of ways two or more things can happen if they are independent is the product of the numbers of ways each one can happen.
