We would need to know the number of children in the family to answer this question. For instance, the probability of having no girls in a family of two children would be 1/4 theoretically. In general it is 2-n where n is the number of children.
Assuming that boys and girls are equally likely, it is 11/16.
4/6=2/4 n(s)=3 6
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. A family of 4 is a family of two parents and two children. The probability that both children are girls is 0.2334

Oh, dude, math time! So, if there are 7 kids in total and 4 of them are girls, you just gotta do some quick division. 4 girls out of 7 kids? That's like 4/7 of the children being girls. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
This family has 4 girls and 3 boys. Here is how to get the answer: Assume the family has X girls and Y boys, according to the question, we can come up with 2 equations: X-1=Y, 2(Y-2)=X. Solve the equations, we get X=4, Y=3.
4 sisters and 6 brothers
If a quarter of the children in a class are boys, then three quarters must be girls. This means that the fraction of girls in the class is 3/4. In other words, out of every 4 children in the class, 3 are girls.
In a family with four children, the probability of having four boys is 1 in 16.
