The Probability that Robert randomly pulls out a black sock is 1/5 .

In the question ,

it is given that

Total number of socks in sock drawer = 30 socks

number of white socks in the drawer = 16 socks

number of black socks in the drawer = 6 socks

number of red socks in the drawer = 2 socks

number of yellow socks in the drawer = 6 socks

So , the probability that he randomly pulls out a black sock = (number of black socks in the drawer) / ( total number of socks in the drawer )

= 6 / 30

= 1/5

Therefore , The Probability that Robert randomly pulls out a black sock is 1/5 .
