yes it is correct 25/27

then yes, that is correct, 27 socks total, and 2 ARE beige so 25 are NOT beige.

25/27

anonymous · Answer

yes :) ohkay guys here another :) suppose you roll two dice . Find the number of elements in the event space of rolling a sum of 2 :o

anonymous · Answer

so you mulitply the dice 36 or 12 ? first .

anonymous · Answer

then find how many can make 2 . which is only 1 . {1,1}

anonymous · Answer

the only sum that can be is 1+1.
And from the first dice the probability is 1/6 also in the second dice it is 1/6 so in the end we get 1/36

anonymous · Answer

so it would be 1/36 or 1/12 ? correct or no ?

anonymous · Answer

1/36 is the correct answer :)

anonymous · Answer

because you multiply 1/6 and 1/6 and you get 1/36
