Butch Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 (edited) You are in a dark room with at least 5 black socks and at least 7 white socks, how many socks must you retrieve to ensure you have a matching pair when you exit the room? There are only white and black socks in the room. Edited November 18, 2016 by Butch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbstractDreamer Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 If there are only black and white socks in the room, how can you ever exit the room if there are no doors or exits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cuthber Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 If there are only black and white socks in the room, how can you ever exit the room if there are no doors or exits? Unless you are a sock, the point is moot- you are never in the room. Just as well really- or the lack of air would be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbstractDreamer Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 You are in a dark room There are only white and black socks in the room. Therefore you are sock. Just as well really- or the lack of air would be an issue. Socks do not need air. when you exit the room? This requires an exit. There are only white and black socks in the room. There is no exit, no air, no fish, in the room. Only socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
