Question:
In a family with 2 children, the probability that both children will be boys is 1/4. Suppose 1200 families with two children are selected at random.

(b) What is the standard deviation of the number of families with 2 boys?
(c) Suppose that of the 1200 families, 315 families have two boys. How many standard deviations above the mean is this number (315) of families?
