15. Explain why in a drawer containing only two different colors of socks one must draw only three socks to find a matching
pair.
Choose the correct answer below.
A. If there are only two colors of socks in the drawer, then of any 3 chosen, two must be the same color.
B. If there are only two colors of socks in the drawer, then of any two chosen, both must be the same
color.
C.
Regardless of the number of different colors of socks in the drawer, one must only draw one more sock
than the desired number of matching socks in order to get a matching set. Therefore, in order to get
two matching socks, one must draw only three from the drawer.
D. It is not the case that one must draw only three socks to find a matching pair.

Please show work if any.
