Question

In a group there are 3 boys and 4 girls. A child is selected from the group at random. Find the probability that the selected child is a boy. ​

Answer 1

3/7

Explanation:

Probability=Number of possible items÷Number of total items.

We will make the possible item 3 because we are looking for the probability whether a boy will be picked.

The number of total items will therefore be: the number of boys + the number of girls; that will be 3+4 =7.

So the probability of picking a boy will be 3/7
