Description

This example presents a drawer with socks in colors like blue, pink, yellow, green, white, and black. Students calculate the probability of selecting two pairs of socks: one blue and one black. They determine the probability of selecting blue socks first and then multiply it by the probability of selecting black socks given that blue has already been selected. This scenario reinforces conditional probabilities and helps students apply these concepts in real-world contexts.
