One drawer in a dresser contains 8 blue socks and 6 white socks. A second drawer contains 4 blue socks and 2 white socks. One sock is chosen from each drawer. What is the probability that they match?

What will be an ideal response?


P(match)=P(BB) + P(WW)
=(8?14)(4?6) + (6?14)(2?6)
=44?84 = 0.5238
