# In a family having three children, there may be no girl, one girl, two girls or three girls. So, the probability of each is  $\frac{1}{4}$ . Is this correct? Justify your answer.

Solution.    Probability: probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value is expressed from zero to one.
Total children = 3
Cases – GGG, GGB, GBG, BGG, BBB, BBG, BGB, GBB were G is girl and B is boy.
Probability = $\frac{Number\, of\, favorable\ cases, }{Total\, number\, of\, cases}$
Probability of 0 girl = $\frac{1}{8}$
Probability of 1 girl = $\frac{3}{8}$
Probability of 2 girl = $\frac{3}{8}$
Probability of 3 girl = $\frac{1}{8}$
Here they are not equal to $\frac{1}{4}$
