Description

This example involves a drawer filled with socks in colors like blue, pink, yellow, green, white, and black. Students calculate the probability of selecting two pairs of socks: one white and one yellow. They find the probability of selecting white socks first and then multiply it by the probability of selecting yellow socks given that white has already been selected. This exercise introduces conditional probabilities, reinforcing key concepts while providing practical application. Visual aids help students understand these calculations.
