The probability that you randomly pick a black sock from the drawer is 8/18
Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.
Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome
Suppose you have 5 white, 5 blue and 8 black socks in a drawer, hence;
Total outcome = 5 + 5 + 8 = 18 socks
If you randomly pick a black sock from the drawer, the expected outcome will be 8 black socks
Pr(black sock) = 8/18
Hence the probability that you randomly pick a black sock from the drawer is 8/18
