Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The odds of having twins is approximately 1 in 33, which means that for every 33 pregnancies, one will result in the birth of twins. This is based on statistical data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The other choices (A, B, D) are not correct because the odds of having twins are not that high. Choosing a high number, such as D) 47, suggests that the odds are much lower than they actually are, while choosing a low number, such as A) 10 or B) 25, suggests that the odds are much higher than they actually are.
