Question

Given that 51.3%51.3\% of all newly born children are boys; then what is the probability that in a sample of 5 newly born children; exactly 3 are boys.

Solution

P=C(3,5)0.5133(10.513)2=5!3!(53)!0.51330.4872=100.1350.237=0.32P = C(3, 5) * 0.513^3 * (1 - 0.513)^2 = \frac{5!}{3!(5-3)!} 0.513^3 \cdot 0.487^2 = 10 * 0.135 * 0.237 = 0.32


Answer: p=0.32p = 0.32.
