Explanation / Answer

Possible outcomes = MMM , MMF , MFM ,MFF , FMM , FMF, FFF

So total possible outcomes = 8

Number of outcomes in which number of female children is

=8

All possible outcomes are less than 6 female children

So Probability of selecting a family with number of female children is fewer than 6 is 1

answer : 1
