Answer 2

The probability that Deena will choose a pair of white socks is 4/10 or 40%

Explanation:

Let's check the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Total pairs or socks Deena has = 10

Pairs of white socks Deena has = 4

Pairs of black socks Deena has = 3

Pairs of red socks Deena has = 1

Pairs of navy socks Deena has = 2

If she pulls a pair of socks out of her drawer in the morning without looking, what is the probability that she will choose a pair of white socks?

Probability of Deena will choose a pair of white socks = Pairs of white socks Deena has/Total pairs or socks Deena has

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Probability of Deena will choose a pair of white socks = 4/10 or 40%
