If the probability of giving birth to a boy is 0.52, what is the approximate probability of giving birth to 4 consecutive boys?

Probability of giving birth to four consecutive boys ;
0.52 0.52 * 0.52 * 0.52
= 0.073 ( rounded off)
Thus, the probability to give birth to 4 consecutive boys is 0.073

The solution is 0.073
The **probability **of giving birth to four consecutive boys is given by the **equation **P = 0.073
What is Probability?
The **probability **that an event will occur is measured by the ratio of favorable examples to the total **number **of situations possible
The value of **probability **lies between 0 and 1
Given data ,
Let the **probability **of giving birth to four consecutive boys be P
Now , the **equation **will be
The **probability **of giving birth to a boy is A = 0.52
Now , for four consecutive boys ,
The **probability **of giving birth to four consecutive boys = A x A x A x A
Substituting the values in the **equation **, we get
The **probability **of giving birth to four consecutive boys P = ( 0.52 )⁴
On simplifying the **equation **, we get
The **probability **of giving birth to four consecutive boys P = 0.073116
So , **probability **of giving birth to four consecutive boys P = 0.073
Therefore , the value of P is 0.073
Hence , the **probability **is 0.073

The approximate probability of giving birth to four consecutive boys is 0.074. This is calculated by multiplying the probability of a boy being born, which is 0.52, four times. Thus, the formula used is ( 0.52 ) 4 ≈ 0.074 .
