Do more than 50 percent of the children in a certain group have brown hair?

Mathematics

babymother [125]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

What we know is that 30% of the group have brown hair and are girls. It means that in the other 70% we have the boys with brown hair, the other boys and the other girls.

In the case all the girls have brown hair, the 70% remaining would be boys. So 70% of then would have brown hair. (0.7*0.7=0.49 -> 49% of the children would be brown hair) so 49% (boys) and 30% (girls) are more than 50%..

Now, let's suppouse that 90% of the group are girls. It means 10% are boys and 70% of that 10% (=7%) are the boys in the group that have brown hair. Now 7% + 30% of the children have brown hair, wich isn't more than the half.

We have explained with two extreme cases that the information is not enough for making a precise answer
