Without looking, how many names would you need to pull out of the hat to be sure you get either two boys or two girls? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let's say the first 23 were either ALL girls 0r ALL boys...
The 24th pull would insure one of each.
