Answer:

B. The number of girls is significantly low.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 200 births are randomly selected and 6 of the births are girls.

Normally we expect 50% of births to be boys and 50% girls. If it is not exactly 50% atleast near to 50% we expect

But here out of 200 births, only 6 births are girls.

This means percentage of girls birth= [tex]\frac{6}{200} =0.03[/tex]=3%

while that of boys is 97%

This is a very unbalanced figure posing danger to the future generations.

B. The number of girls is significantly low.
