Guest Fat no Jutsu Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) They were playing Monopoly. The teacher had the car icon. "It is 9 at night, and Molly is rearranging her socks, after a pile of mixed red and white socks were dumped into her drawer. Suddenly, her lights burn out just as she opens the drawer. She also realizes she has to go to an appointment. She must now remove a pair of socks from the drawer, in the dark. What is the minimum number of socks that she must take out before getting one pair of matching socks?"

Guest Fat no Jutsu Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 No. That has a possibility of giving her different socks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 It doesn't matter cuz the lights are out and noone will know what kind of socks she has on, and neither will she. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthias Drake Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Two. All the socks were mixed red and white. I don't know why you'd want them, but they're still all the same... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khaos Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 If there are only red socks and white socks in the drawer then 2 minimum, 3 max. Unless you meant each sock is red AND white, in which case its 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest matrim Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 The answer to itachi is the eraser. The answer to the socks question is 3. Since there are only 2 colors, the logic produces that no matter which colors she draws, she will always draw 2 of the same color in that case scenario.

Guest shikamaru742 Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 To the sock queston i say 1 because he asked what is the minimum of sock she must take out before making a pair.It's only logical if u look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitai Tenshi Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Its more of a philsophical question. Yes it does make a sound. And there is someone there it the conductor. But the sound is never heard from anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
