then
1/x = (3/6) = (1/2)
so the answer would be
x = 2

Answer:

36.36% probability that she gave birth to quadruplets

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcoes.

Desired outcomes:

Giving births to quadruplets.

She has 4 sets of quadruplets.

So D = 4

Total outcomes:

At least 3 children(triplets).

7 sets of triplets and 4 sets of quadruplets.

So T = 7 + 4 = 11

Probability:

p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{4}{11} = 0.3636

36.36% probability that she gave birth to quadruplets
