What is the probability if a girl is expecting her 10Th child if rest 9 are girls?
Since having a child to a child is an independent event (assuming no outside intervention), the probability is still about 50 / 50 boy or girl.
When a family of seven boys and no girls is expecting an eighth child what is the probability of the next child being a girl?
If the gender of a child were an independent variable then the genders of the existing children would be irrelevant and so the probability of the next child being a girl would be approximately 1/2.It would be approximately 1/2 because the overall proportion is not exactly half. However, and more important, is the fact that the gender of a child is affected by the parents' genes and so is not independent of the gender of previous children.
What is the probability of a couple having four children in the following order girl girl girl boy?
It is not possible to answer the question because:the total number of children that the couple had is not known;the gender of the child depends [mainly] on the father, and is not 0.5;the gender of each child is not independent of the gender of previous children.
What is the probability that a family of 4 would have 3 boys and 1 girl?
There is no simple answer to the question because the children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes.However, if you assume that they are independent events then, given that the probability of a boy is approx 0.52, the probability of three boys and a girl is 0.2669.
What is the probability that a family will have a boy?
The probability is1 - [Prob(No children) + Prob(1 child, a girl) + Prob(2 children, both girls) + Prob(3 children, all girls) + ...]Not all relevant information is readily available.
What is the probability that a child will be a girl versus a boy?
50%
What is the probability of having a girl versus having a boy?
The probability of having a girl versus a boy is 1/2 because there is two things you have a chance of getting and you can only get one or the other.

What is the probability that parents that have 2 boys and one girl will have a girl next?
There is not enough information on the propensity for the parents to have a child of either gender and so it is necessary to assume that the probability of the gender of the next child is independent of the genders of preceding children. In that case the probability of the next child being a girl is 1/2.There is not enough information on the propensity for the parents to have a child of either gender and so it is necessary to assume that the probability of the gender of the next child is independent of the genders of preceding children.

What is the probability of after six girls born the next child being a girl?
There is no simple answer to the question because the children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes. Unfortunately there is no readily available research into the genders of seven or more children to establish the experimental probability for such an outcome. However, if you assume that they are independent events then, given that the probability of a girl is approx 0.48, then the probability of the seventh child being a girl is 0.48.
In a family with two children you know that one child is a girl What is the probability the second child is a girl?
There is only one answer and that is 50-50.

A woman has 5 children 1 girl and 4 boys What is the probability that her next child will be a girl?
50%, the Father's contribution decides the sex of a child.
A women gives birth too a son.Two years later she gives birth to another son.What is the probability that her third child will be a girl?
There is no simple answer to the question because the children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes.However, if you assume that they are independent events then, the probability that the third child is a girl is the same as the probability that any birth is a girl - which is 0.48 across the world.
