  • Well, to be totally sure, wouldn't he have to pull out 11? What if he pulled all of the opposite color out by some chance? I say Joe stick to one color, wear longer pants, and change the light bulb. But since that is not really an option, I am just going to say 11. I'm probably wrong in my logic, but eh...
  • I think he would have to pull out 3. Say the first one was blue. the second was black. No matter what the next one he pulled out was, it would either be blue or black, it would make a pair for Joe!!! Hurray!
  • The answer is 2 more socks ... giving a total of 3 socks he needs to pull from the drawer to be sure he has a pair.
  • Three, since there are only 2 colors, the third will match ether the first or the second to make a pair.
  • He would need to pull out 3 socks in total. There are only 2 colour socs so the 3rd sock will defiantly be the same colour as one of the first two socks.
  • 1) If it were a horse, this would be a horse of a different color. 2) In the dark, all socks are matching. 3) a match could be useful to make some light. 3) If the second sock is not a match, he gets two socks from different colors, so the third will be a match for one of them.
  • Wow- I haven't heard this one since third grade!!! Well you would have to pull out two more socks to make a grand total of three- but I won't give an explanation as that seems to have been done by everyone else...
