An ovum will have an X chromosome regardless, but a sperm has a 50% chance of having either an X or a Y chromosome, so there's a 50% chance a zygote will be XY (male) and 50% that it will be XX (female).

A family has five children half of which are boys how is this possible?

The statement can be true if the family has a total of five children, with two boys and three girls. The phrase "half of which are boys" can also be interpreted as meaning that two out of the five children are boys, which is indeed half of four, but not of five. Therefore, the family can have five children with two being boys, fulfilling the conditions of the question.


There are twice as many girls as boys in a chemistry class If 50 percent of the girls and 80 percent of boys have finished the test what percent are still working on the test?

Still working on the test. At first glance you know that at least one third of the class is still working on it (half the girls are one third of the class). And since over half the boys have finished, you know the total remaining is less than half. You can figure it out using any numbers to set it up, but let's use 20 girls and 10 boys as the simplest. So 10 girls and 8 boys have finished for a total of 18, which leaves 12 still working on it. 12/30 is 6/15ths which is 2/5ths which is the same as 40%.
