Answer:

The likelihood is 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this we take the number of blue socks (2) and divide by the sample size. We can find the sample size by adding all of the socks that it could be. Since it must not be brown, we have to add blue to white.

2 + 8 = 10

So we divide blue by that number

2/10 = 1/5
