Answer:
The probability that you'll end up with socks that aren't blue is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pieces of clothing available:
X = {shirt, pants, socks and hat}
The color options:
Y = {purple, blue and orange}
So, if a person picks a shirt he/she has 3 color options.
Similarly for pants, socks and hat there are 3 color options each.
That makes 12 possible pieces of clothing.
That is, there are 12 total options available.
Now, compute the probability of selecting a socks as follows:

Compute the probability of selecting the color blue as follows:

Compute the probability of selecting a socks that are not blue as follows:
![P(Socks\cap not\ Blue)=P(Socks)\times [1-P(Blue)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28Socks%5Ccap%20not%5C%20Blue%29%3DP%28Socks%29%5Ctimes%20%5B1-P%28Blue%29%5D)
![=\frac{1}{4}\times [1-\frac{1}{3}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5B1-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%5D)


Thus, the probability that you'll end up with socks that aren't blue is
