Detailed Solution

Given that, a data gathered from 1500 families.
Question ImageWe have to find the probability of the randomly chosen family that has one girl.
The probability of an event A is given by,
P(A)= Number of favourable outcomes Total number of outcomes  
Total number of outcomes, n(S) = 1500.
Let B   be the event that a family has one girl.
Then, n(B)=814
 The probability that a family has one girl is given by,
  P(B)= n(B) n(S) P(B)= 814 1500 P(B)= 407 750  
Thus, the probability that a family has one girl is 407 750  .
Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
