In a family with two children, what is the probability that both are boys.

There are four possible outcomes :

BOY / BOY ; GIRL / GIRL ; BOY / GIRL ; GIRL / BOY

so, total outcomes = 4

Favourable outcomes = 1 (B / B)

P(E) = fav / tottal

         = 1/4

Hope it helps...thumbs up if it does pls...:)
