How can you relate probability and punnett squares?

The probability of an event is easily calculated by dividing the number of squares that predict the event by the total number of squares. For example, if a man and woman were having a child, and the man was tall with brown hair and the woman short with blonde hair, the probability of the child being, say, tall with blonde hair, would be 1(number of squares with tall/blonde as a result) divided by 4(total number of squares), which is .25, or 25%


If a woman has given birth to two sons what is the probability that her third child will be a girl?

In general, the probability that any child will be a girl is approximately 1 in 2. It is like flipping a coin. There is a 50-50 chance for a specific outcome each time. It would be less likely that a woman would have three sons than that she have two sons and one daughter, but each individual outcome is a 50-50 chance. If this is a brain teaser, since we are given that the woman has given birth to two sons, it could imply that any other children she has are daughters, in which case the probability is 100% - if we know that she has other children.
