iv. Probability of at least one boy., , For at least one boy means one boy and another girl, or both boy., , In this, one boy and other girl can occur in two ways:, , 1st boy and 2nd girl or the other way round., , (20 x 25) + (20 x 15), , = 500 + 300, , = 800, , “. the possibility is 0.50 (obtained in previous part), , We have already seen the possibility of both the boys in above solved parts i.e., probability of both boys is 0.4375, , “. Probability of at least one boy = 0.50 + 0.4375, , = 0.9375
