Algebra.Com's Answer #191522 by edjones(8007) You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assume that there is only one red sock. Then there are 2 blue socks. Then there must be 2 yellow socks so that the probability of choosing a red sock is 1/5. So the probability of choosing a yellow sock is 2/5. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Ed \n" ); document.write( " |
