1/4 because one child getting their own book would be 1 book out of the 4
3/4 because if the child gets their book then it would be 3 books out of 4 that arent that kids book

good luck

A.) 1/4
B.) 3/4 because there is a 4 people, so if they did get their own book, then the other 3 wouldn't. So yeah that's right!

You cant. No one said how many kids there were in total.

Also, the question sucks.
