How do you calculate the odds of something? - Answers

If there were 10 sock in a basket and 2 were red and 8 were blue then the odds of getting a red sock is 2/10 which can be simplified to 1/5. This means that if you picked a sock from the basket 5 times (each time throwing it back) you would most likely get 1 red sock and 4 blue socks. The odds of getting a blue sock is 8/10. This can be simplified to 4/5. Basically you take the total and put it as the denominator. Then you take the total number of the object (in this case the socks) and put it as the numerator. Got it? Hope this helped!! :)
