Answer:

There is a 3/7 chance for a gray kitten, a 4/7 chance for a male kitten, and a 1/7 chance for a gray male kitten.

Explanation:

Total Kittens = 7 (each of the following will be out of the total amount of kittens)

2/7 = Gray Female

1/7 = Gray Male

1/7 = Black Female

3/7 = Black Male

Total Male Kittens = 4/7

Total Gray Kittens = 3/7
