Question

You'r at a clothing store that dyes your clothes while you wait. You get to pick from 4 pieces of clothing (shirt, pants, socks, or hat) and 3 colors (purple, blue, or orange). If you randomly pick the piece of clothing and the color, what is the probability that you'll end up with socks that aren't blue?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6 or 0.1666

Step-by-step explanation:

For each piece of clothing, there are 3 possible colors.

For 4 clothings, there will be 12 different possibilities. (4x3)

Now the possibility of ending up with socks if you choose on random is 3 out 0f 12. Now exclude the blue colour from that, and the probability is now 2 out of 12.

2/12 = 1/6
