Dolphin births A state has two aquariums that have dolphins, with more births recorded at the larger aquarium than at the smaller one. Records indicate that in general babies are equally likely to be male or female, but the gender ratio varies from season to season. Which aquarium is more likely to report a season when over two-thirds of the dolphins born were males? Explain.
