Answer:

3/8 That the first sock is blue, 2/8 that the second sock is red

Step-by-step explanation:

The Drawer contains

2 Red Socks

3 White Socks

3 Blue Socks

2 + 3 + 3 = 8

There are a total of 8 socks in the drawer

The Probability of Picking a :

Red Sock is 2/8

Blue Sock is 3/8

White Sock is 3/8

Therefore the Probability that the first sock is blue is 3/8
