Question

1. Suppose half of all newborns are girls and half are boys. Hospital A, a large city hospital, records an average of 50 births a day. Hospital B, a small, rural hospital, records an average of 10 births a day. On a particular day, which hospital is less likely to record 80% or more female births?

Answer 1

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hospital A (with 50 births a day), because the more births you see, the closer the proportions will be to 0.5.

Hospital B (with 10 births a day), because with fewer births there will be less variability.

The two hospitals are equally likely to record such an event, because the probability of a boy does not depend on the number of births

Answer 2

I had the same question it’s 5%
