A researcher is exploring the notion that there is an economy of scale in raising children. While having one child might add to

a family's financial stress, the second or third one might not be as "expensive" since they would already be sharing one roof, could share clothing, etc. The researcher has access to a large community of parents where 15% have one child under 18 in their home, 65% of parents have two children, and 20% of parents have three or more children. Rounded to the nearest whole number, the probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home is ________ %?

Answer:

The probability is   G  =  85%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The percentage of parents that have one child under 18 in their homes is  k = 15%

  The percentage of parents that have two children is  T = 65%

    The percentage of parents that have three or more children is  Y = 20%

Generally the probability that any given family who is selected have two or more children at home is mathematically evaluated as

     G  =  T  +  Y

=>  G  =  65% +  20%

=>  G  =  85%
