A Pair of Matching Socks – Fun Logic Puzzles

Question :

You are about to leave for holiday, but you forgot to bring socks!

You race back to your room, but the power is off so you can’t see
the sock colors.

Never mind, because you remember that in your drawer there are
ten pairs of green socks, ten pairs of red socks
and eleven pairs of blue socks, but they are all mixed up.

How many of your socks do you need to take before you
can be sure to have at least one matching pair?

Answer :

Four.

Although there are more than a dozen socks in the drawer, there are only three colors (Green, Red, Blue),
so if you randomly take four socks from the drawer, then you are guaranteed to have at least one matching pair.

Off to your holiday…. 🙂

During your holiday, you came across a Farmer who wishes to cross a River with a Wolf, Goat and Cabbage,
can you help the farmer ?
