A woman has two kids. One is a boy. What are the odds the other is a boy?

BG and GB are separate options and along with BB that's three options

saying that BG and BB are the only options makes the assumption that you know that the younger child is a boy. It could be either the younger child or the older child. Go read through page 3, follow the link, read, and gtfo with failed intuition. <<

Seriously, i don't normally get mad, but I already explained why people who said 50% are wrong. So go back and try to actually read through the thread before posting. >>


actually you are wrong, the way the question is worded doesnt mean what are the chances both are boys which is 33%. it is, the other is a boy. i explained why it is 50% acording to mendelian genetics in a previous post. go back and read it. oh and add me to BL shouri
