A family consists of a father, a mother and 2 children. What is the probability that all 2 children are boys?

1/2

1/4

1/6

1/8

¼

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of having a boy is ½ and that of a girl is ½.

Probability of boy, boy is (pb*pb) and given pb to be ½ then we can prove the point as follows

For these two children

The options are as follows

1 boy(first) and 1 girl

2 boys

2 girls

1 girl( first) and 1 boy

These are four possible options and the option for two boys is 1 out of the four.

The probability of 2 boys is ½*½=¼

r = the annual interest rate

n = the annual frequency of compounding (how many times a year interest is added)

t = the number of years the money is invested
