Since only one example is given, and no other information, it could be pretty much anything.
But the most probable I can think of is the sum of the numbers.
Then the first one is 1+1+4+2+3+1+6=18.
And the second 1+2+1+3+3+5 =15

Greetings gentlemen, ladies and hermaphrodites.
I'm from Sweden, which happens to mean that the weather is awful most of the time and there really is no reason not to stay in and do science. My preferred areas of science is math, physics and engineering. At the moment I'm studying for a masters degree in vehicle engineering with a focus on aerospace.

The probability of her having two daughters is 1/3.
There are 3 possible combinations; only the oldest child is a girl, only the youngest child is a girl, both children are girls. Given that each child is a girl by a probability of 50%, all these combinations have equal probability.
In the second case, the probability of her having two daughters is 1/2
If we do know that the her youngest child is a girl, the possible combinations are reduced to two; only the youngest child is a girl and both children are girls. This means that the problem can be reduced to whether the oldest child is a girl or not, the probability of which is given to 50%

Drinking Milk and eating red meat together
in Biology
Posted
The version I've heard on that is that you should not drink milk, tea, Coca cola or coffee with red meat or other iron rich food if you have poor iron status or a diet low in iron. This because calcium and polyphenols reduced iron absorption. I guess that it could be argued that you shouldn't combine them otherwise either since the body can not use the nutrients of the meat as well as otherwise, but it should not be directly harmful because of these reasons.
