, or 111 to indicate the most appropriate probability for the event.



The next baby born at your local hospital will be assigned male.

The probability of a baby being assigned male at birth is generally estimated to be about 0.5, or 50%. However, since the probabilities must be given in the specified format, the most appropriate representation for this event would be \(\frac{1}{2}\).

So, the answer is: \(\frac{1}{2}\).
