Answer:

Probability of selecting 1 girl is \frac{1}{5}

Probability of selecting at least 1 girl is  \frac{3}{5}/tex]</p><p><strong>Step-by-step explanation:</strong></p><p>We are given From a group of 3 boys and 2 girls we seleted 2 children. </p><p>So, total children = 3+2 = 5 </p><p>Now probability that 1 girl is selected </p><p>Favorable event = 1</p><p>Total events = 5</p><p>So, probability of selecting 1 girl = [tex]\frac{1}{5}

Now we are supposed to find the probability that at least 1 girl is selected.

This means there can be 1 girl or two girls

So, probability of selecting 1 girl = \frac{1}{5}

So, probability of selecting 2 girl = \frac{2}{5}

So, probability of selecting At least 1 girl = \frac{1}{5}+\frac{2}{5}

                                                                  = [tex]\frac{3}{5}/tex]

Thus probability of selecting at least 1 girl is  [tex]\frac{3}{5}/tex]
