A family has 8 girls and 4 boys. A total of 2 children must speak on behalf of the family at a local benefit. What is the probability that at least one boy will be chosen?
Cameron AdamsLet's look at the probability that no boy is chosen.
Combined probability of first AND second being a girl (Remember AND means MULTIPLY):
The probability of at least one boy is then the complement of this, or in other words:

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
