Question

Morgan is picking out her socks in the dark. She has 2 black pairs, 4 blue pairs, 3 brown pairs, and 3 white pairs. Find P(not white).

Answer 1

Answer:

I think there's about a 25% chance that she picks a pair of white socks. Because there's 12 pairs of socks, and there's 3 pairs of white socks. So 9 pairs of socks are not white. 9 pairs of socks equals 75% of the total pairs.
