May 9 is National Lost Sock Memorial Day, so we had to take a moment to remember all the broken pairs out there mourning a loved one. Solve this sock riddle and forever be hailed the Sock God:
“If your sock drawer has 6 black socks, 4 brown socks, 8 white socks, and 2 tan socks, how many socks would you have to pull out in the dark to be sure you had a matching pair?”
Hit the flip for the correct answer.
The answer is: Five! There are only four colors, so pulling out five socks guarantee that two will be the same color.
