One Girl - One Boy

Ok, so Teanchi and Beanchi are a married couple (dont ask me whose he and whose she)!

They have two kids, one of them is a girl, what is the probability that the other kid is also a girl.

Assume safely that the porbability of each gender is 1/2.

Discuss Solution In The Forums:

Show - solution:
Ans: 1/3

This is a famous question in understanding conditional probability, which simply means that given some information you might be able to get a better estimate.

The following are possible combinations of two children that form a sample space in any earthly family:
Girl - Girl
Girl - Boy
Boy - Girl
Boy - Boy

Since we know one of the children is a girl, we will drop the Boy-Boy possibility from the sample space.
This leaves only three possibilities, one of which is two girls. Hence the probability is 1/3

Answer 2
It's secret is to say whay you see on each line and what you see becomes the next line. For full answer see below.

Line 1 is "Two ones" (2 1)
Line 2 then becomes "One two, and one one" (1 2 1 1)
Line 3 therefore is "One one, one two and two ones" (1 1 1 2 2 1)
Line 4 is "Three ones, two twos and one one" (3 1 2 2 1 1)
Line 5 is "One three, one one, two twos and two ones" (1 3 1 1 2 2 1 1)



The Bear Problem

Discuss Solution In The Forums:

Show - solution:
Answer 1.
The bear was white because it was a polar bear.

Answer 2
The only place on earth where a bear can go south, west and north equal distances and end up where it started is the North Pole.

Checkboard

The squares labeled A and B are the same shade of gray. This can be verified by joining the squares marked A and B with two vertical stripes of the same shade of gray. The illusion that B is lighter than A is caused by the relative contrast of the surrounding dark squares and by the fact that our vision compensates for the shadow of the cylinder. Created by Edward H. Adelson, Professor of Vision Science at MIT.
