Consider the population of all families with two children. Represent the gender of each child using G for girl and B. The gender information is sequential with the first letter indicating the gender of the older sibling. Thus, a family having a girl first and then a boy is denoted GB. If we assume that a child is equally likely to be male or female, what is the probability that the selected family has two girls given that the older sibling is a girl?
