$\dfrac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of children in a family is 1, 2, 3, or 4.

Little Joe (a boy) has no brothers. But he may have sisters.

The sample space for the number of child in Joe's family : {B, BG, BGG, BGGG}, where G represents girl and B represents boys.

Then , for the probability that he is an only child, favorable outcome = B

Thus, the probability that he is an only child is given by :-

$=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcome}}{\text{Total outcomes}}=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Hence, the probability that he is an only child = $\dfrac{1}{4}$
