What is the probability that a family continue to have children until they have a boy will have more than three children?
The answer to this is 1 minus the probability that they will have 3 or fewer children. This would happen only if they had a boy as the first, second or third child. The probability they have a boy as first child is 0.5 The probability they have a boy as second is 0.25 The probability they have a boy as third is 0.125 Thus the total probability is 0.875 And so the probability they will have more than three children is 1-0.875 or 0.125
What is the probability that a family with four children has all boys given that the first two are boys?
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 the other two being boys is 0.2672.
What is the probability of a family having a boy after four girls?
The probability of a boy is still 0.5 no matter how many prior children there are.
What is the probability for family to born 2 boys and 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, given that the probability of a boy is approx 0.52, the probability of the other two being boys is 0.4994
What is the probability to have 2 girls and a boy in a family?
The 8 possible outcomes for three children are: * ggg * ggb * gbg * gbb * bgg * bgb * bbg * bbb Of these, two girls and a boy occurs 3 out of 8 times, which is a probability of 0.375. This assumes that the probability of a boy and girl being in the family is equal, which is not entirely true for a large number of reasons.

A women is going to have 6 children What is the probability that all 6 will be boys?
if we assume that the probability for a girl being born is the same as a boy being born: (1/2)^6 = 0.015625 = 1.5625%

A woman is chosen at random among all woman who have two children She is asked if she has at least one son and says yes. What is the probability of here other child being a boy?
Children's genders are not independent and therefore there is no simple answer. However, if you do assume that their genders are independent then the probability is 1/3.
What is the probability of having one boy out of eight children?
1/8?

What is the probability that a family of four children has at least 1 boy?
1 in 2
What is the probability of having 8 children that the 9 child will be a boy?
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 it is the probability of a boy, which is approx 0.52
What is the probability that a family with 4 children would have at least 1 boy?
1/4
What is the probability of all boys with triplets?
Assuming the probability of a boy is 0.5, the probability of a boy and boy and boy is 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.125.
