At a hospital, 56 percent of the babies born are boys. of the baby girls born, 12 percent are premature. what is the probability of a premature baby girl being born at this hospital? round to the nearest percent. 5% 7% 21% 27%

If the likelihood of boys being born is 56%, then the complement of that is the likelihood of girls being born which is 100% - 56% = 44%.
Since we are given that of the baby girls born, 12% are premature, the probability of a premature baby girl  being born is:
(0.44)(0.12) = 0.0528 or 5.28%
The closest answer is the FIRST OPTION (5%).
