Today's Question - Sock it two me! Rich has to get a pair of socks but can't put the light on for fear of waking his wife. In the drawer - but not paired - are 21 blue socks, 17 gray, 11 black, 7 maroon and 3 tan. How many socks must he pull out in the dark to be sure there was a pair in the group? (Yes, I know all the numbers were odd but you do know the "lost sock syndrome".....and yes, Rich will be able to see the socks when he tiptoes into the next room.)

Reveal Answer Answer - The numbers of available socks was not important. There were 5 colors so 6 choices were needed to assure at one pair.
