Answer :
0.53
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Probability of female = probability of success on a single trial = 0.51
Number of babies = 80
Probability that more than half of the babies are female : p(X >80/2) = P(X > 40)
The problem can be solved using the binomial probability function :
P(X > 40) = [ p(X= 41) + p(X= 42) +.... +p(X= 80)]
In other to save computation time, we can use the binomial probability calculator
Hence ; P(X > 40) = 0.527 = 0.53
