GP 4 Week 4 Reflection (Due 4/24)
At a baby shower, we started discussing baby statistics. One of the women told us she had heard a report that for every 100 babies born, there were 6 more boys than girls. If we were to randomly pick a child from a representative group, what is the probability of picking a girl?

47 Percent.
ReplyDeleteI spit 100 into 2 because we have 2 main groups. That's 50/50. Than I have to guess and check. I need two numbers that add together to get one hundred and are 6 away from each other. So 53:100 are boys and 47:100 are girls. since its out of 100 than that gives you your precent.

I had gotten 47 percent because I had split 100 in half due to 2 main groups. I had gotten 50% and another 50%. I would need two numbers that will get a sum of 100 and that they are six away from each other. Then I would have 53 out of 100 boys and 47 out of 100 girls. The sum is 100 which will make the equation a percentage.

ReplyDeleteI got 47% of picking a girl. If you spilt 100 in have, you get 50. So since it has to be 6 away, I split 6 in have and added 3 to 50 and subtracted 3 from 50 and got 53 out of 100 boys and 47 out of 100 girls.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Alexus because when you divide 100 by 2, you get 50. Then if you divide 6 by 2, you get 3. So then you would add 3 to 50 and subtract 3 from 50 so you would get 53 out of 100 boys and 47 out of 100 girls.

ReplyDeleteThere is a 47% chance of picking a girl. By splitting 100 by 2, you get 50. I need two numbers that add up to 100 and 6 away from each other. so for the boys it is going to be 53:100 and for the girls it is 47:100. That is how you get 47%.
ReplyDeleteThere's a 47% chance of picking a girl. then you split 100 by 2 I got 50. You need 2 numbers that equal up to 100 and 6 away from each other. For the boys it is going to be 53:100 and for the girls it is 47:100.
ReplyDeleteThere is a 47% chance of choosing a girl. Since there is 2 groups ; one for girls, and one for boys, each group should be split into 50. The ratio should be both 6 away from one another. 53:100 for boys, and 47:100 for girls.

ReplyDeleteThere's A 47% Chance Of Picking A Girl. For Every 100 Babies Born 6 More Are Boys. 100 Divided By 2 Is 50 Then I Take The 6 And Divide It In Half! 50+3 And 50-3 You Get 53% For Boys And 47% For Girls.

ReplyDeleteIf you randomly picked the probability of picking a girl would be 44:100. The probability would be 44:100 girls and 56:100 boys. You have to subtract 50 and 6 because there's 6 more boys and 50 minus 6 is 44.

There is a 47 percent of choosing a girl. I split a 100 in half to get 50. Then I split 6 then added 6 to 50 then subtracted 3 to end up with 53 out of 100 boys and then 47 girls out of 100.

ReplyDeleteThere is 47% of ending up with a girl. Because is you divide 100 by 2 you get 50. So it has to be 6 away, I split 6 by 2 and added 3 to 50 abd took 3 away from 50 and got 53 out of 100 boys and 47 out of 100 girls,
ReplyDeleteThere would be a 47% chance of girls. I divided 100 in half and got 50. If there is about 6 more boys than girls I added 3 to 50 and subtracted 3 from the girls. That left me with 53% of boys and 47% of girls.
ReplyDeleteThe answer I got was 47% chance of picking a girl. If you split 100 in have, you get 50. So since it has to be 6 away, I split 6 in have and added 3 to 50 and subtracted 3 from 50 and got 53 out of 100 boys and 47 out of 100 girls.
