Solution:

zero

I had 3 green socks and 1 Pink sock.

=> chances of pair of green socks = 1/2
chances of pair of mixed socks = 1/2
chances of pair of green socks = NULL

Solution:

Step1 -> Start running both the hourglasses.
Step2 -> When 4 hours hourglass runs out, turn it over.
Step3 -> When 7 hours hourglass runs out, turn it over.
Step4 -> Again when 4 hours hourglass runs out, turn 7 minute hourglass over (it was running for exactly one minute.)
final step -> 8 minute already passed and allow one minute of 7 hour glass to get over. ==>9 minute

Solution:

Just 1

Solution:

4 socks

Although there are many socks in the draw, there are only three colors. So, four socks are enough to match one pair.

Solution:

1/5

There are six possible pairings of the two balls withdrawn,
Yellow+Yellow
Yellow+Green
Green+Yellow
Yellow+Black
Black+Yellow
Green+Black.

We know the Green + Black combination has not been drawn.

This leaves five possible combinations remaining. Therefore the chances tbowl the Yellow + Yellow pairing has been drawn are 1 in 5.

Many people cannot accept tbowl the solution is not 1 in 3, and of course it would be, if the balls had been drawn out separately and the color of the first ball announced as Yellow before the second had been drawn out. However, as both balls had been drawn together, and then the color of one of the balls announced, then the above solution, 1 in 5, must be the correct one.
