The probability that at least one of them is a kindergartner; 0.643.
What is probability?
Calculating or estimating how likely something is to occur is what probability is all about. The likelihood of an event occurring can be expressed using words like "certain," "impossible," or "probable."
Probabilities are always expressed in mathematics as fractions, decimals, or percentages with values ranging from 0 to 1.
Calculation for the probability of the one of them is a kindergarden;
The total number of children is 8.
The total number of kindergarden are 3.
The total number of first graders are 5.
Let 'P' be the probability that at least one of them is kindergarden.
P(at least one kindergartner) = 1 - P(no kindergartner) = 1 - P(all first-graders)
The probability that all are first-graders = (5/8)×(4/7)
= 5/14
Therefore, P(at least one kindergartner) = 1 - (5/14)
= 9/14
= 0.643
Therefore, if two children are ill then, the probability that at least one of them is a kindergartner is 0.643.
