hey for question 38 , while constructing the sample space why do we consider the order of the child being a B or G? you are treating the events like that of coin tosses..as in nothing has been mentioned like for instance if the older child is daughter or anything like that..its rather silly for me to ask this but do we always treat sums like these by keeping in mind the order?....actually i always get stuck with sums like these so it would be really nice if someone can clarify
