What is Probability ?

Probability is defined as the study of likelihood of an event.

It has the range of 0 to 1.

Probability is equal to the ratio of possibility of an event to total occurrences

It is given in the question that

There are total 5 children , 3 boys and the 2 girls

Total outcome = 5

The probability of selection of first boy is 3/5

Total outcome = 4

No. of boys left to be selected = 4

The probability of selection of second boy is 2/4

Therefore the probability that two boys will be selected

= (3/5)*(2/4)

= (3/5)*(1/2)

=3/10

= 0.3

the probability that two boys will be selected is 0.3 .
