Best Answer

4/5 of the children are boys.

So 1 - 4/5 ie 1/5 of the children are girls.

1/5 = 100 so 1 = 500 ie there are 500 children in all.

4/5 of 500 is 500*4/5 = 400

So there are 400 boys.

What is the probability of having exactly 2 boys out of 6 children?

The answer depends on whether the children are picked at random. If they were selected from inside a girls' school the probability should be quite close to 0. Likewise, if the children were picked inside a boys' school. If six children are picked at random from a large group of children with an equal number of boys and girls, then the answer is 6C2*(1/2)6 = 15/32 = 0.47, approx.
