2. 1000 families with 2 children were selected randomly, and the following data were recorded:
Number of girls in a family012
Number of families333392275

Find the probability of a family, having

(iii) no girl

Solution:-

The extent to which an event is likely to occur and measured by the ratio of the favorable cases to the whole number of cases possible, the chance that a given event will occur.

(iii) Number of families that having no girls = 333

Then, required probability = Number of families that having no girl /total number of families

= \frac{333}{1000}

= \frac{11}{40}

= 0.275
