In a test of a gender-selection technique, results consisted of 248 baby girls and 13 baby boys. based on this result, what is the probability of a girl born to a couple using this technique? does it appear that the technique is effective in increasing the likelihood that a baby will be a girl?

When it comes to probability, the answer is always expressed as part of a whole. With that being said, your answer for this problem can be a ratio, fraction or in percentage. Probability is the study of finding the chances or odds of an event happening with the use of statistics. You are already given the statistics of baby girls and baby boys. Note that you are asked to find the probability of the baby being a girl. So, the part here includes the 248, while the whole is 248+13 = 261. Therefore, the probability is 248/261 or 0.95 or 95%. That means that the likelihood of having a girl baby using this technique is very high.

Ihonestly don’t no that
