1-3Example 2
A drawer of socks contains 6 pairs of white socks, 6 pairs of blue socks, and 3 pairs of black socks. What is the probability of choosing a pair of black or blue socks if you take 1 pair from the drawer without looking?
5. When you take a pair of socks without looking, the probability the socks will be blue or black is three-fifths.
