Ignoring biological biases, 0.5.

In this case, the gender of the younger child is independent of the gender of the elder child.

Ok! Where did the weekend go? Is it not time to have the weekdays off and work the w/e. In case you were wondering; I did re-write parts of the Constitution in order to make a point; up in the history topic, in my never-ending battle with the IRS. It is only the rapture that has sustained me.

That is funny that you lost the weekend. Do you think you will find it again? I lost a day one time Laughing
You re-wrote parts of the Constitution Shocked I hope you remembered to add that there will be no more income taxes. I can't believe you are still posting there. I haven't been there in a while so I have to see what you posted.

I have gotten into a right mess with all these flags here:
Forty percent of the reds added to 60 percent of the greens numbered 56.
If the ratio of the number of reds to the number of greens was 1 to 4, how many were red and how many were green Question
20 red flags and 80 green flags
20x40%=8
80x60%=48
8+48=56
I didn't use a formula for this, I just calculated it in my head.
