Topic	Easy probability question. A guy has two white socks and two pink socks.
Zeus 04/20/17 8:28:02 PM #16:	ANation posted... The correct answer is 1/2. PP = Two pink socks. PW = One pink sock and one white sock. WW = Two white socks. WP = One white sock and one pink sock. There are two matching pairs that he can pull out: Two pink socks and two white socks. There are four different combinations. Two over four is 1/2, which is zero-point-five; therefore, the correct answer is 1/2. You're welcome. Also my conclusion and reasoning. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash <cite>Zeus posted [p:877592605] in Easy proba...
