Answer:
I believe this is the answer 9/(5 + 8x)
There was 30 in each box until he gave 8 away so no there is probably 28 in each box
sorry if i am wrong
4X - 8 = 112
X=162, if you multiply 18*9 which is the way to get the answer you get 162
When it comes to probability, the answer is always expressed as part of a whole. With that being said, your answer for this problem can be a ratio, fraction or in percentage. Probability is the study of finding the chances or odds of an event happening with the use of statistics. You are already given the statistics of baby girls and baby boys. Note that you are asked to find the probability of the baby being a girl. So, the part here includes the 248, while the whole is 248+13 = 261. Therefore, the probability is 248/261 or 0.95 or 95%. That means that the likelihood of having a girl baby using this technique is very high.
Usually I would use my head, but you can use whatever you want.
