Answer :
Probability is all about multiplying fractions.
The first fraction is the probability of picking a girl.. so how many of the 12 total children are girls. (8/12)
The second fraction is the probability of picking a boy.. so how many of the 11 remaining children are boys. (4/11)
8/12 X 4/11 = 8/33 -> this isn't even an option but I'm like 10000% this is the right answer..
I started off this answer feeling so confident lol. good luck.

D. 16/33
because there are 28 g/g pairs, 6 b/b pairs, and 32 g/b pairs. In total 66 pairs, and of those pairs 32/66 are 1 girl and 1 boy, reduced is 16/33.
