b)find the probability that it represented quads and quints.
Answer by ikleyn(52925)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! .
(a) more than two means 3, or 4 or 5.
So, add triplets, quadruplets and quintuplets and relate the sum to the total multiple births in a country in 2007.
(b) similarly, add quads and quints and relate it to the total.
You are just directed and instructed.
