It's 1/2 chance since half the participants are boys

The probability of a boy winning the quiz competition is 1/2

How to determine the probability?

The distribution of the participants is given as:

Boys = 12

Girls = 12

The probability that a boy wins the competition is:

P(Boy) = 12/(12 + 12)

Evaluate

P(Boy) = 1/2

Hence, the probability of a boy winning the quiz competition is 1/2
