Santa has lots of mixed up socks in his sack! If he has 6 green socks, 4 gold socks, 8 black socks and 2 red socks, what is the minimum he needs to pull out of his sack to get a matching pair?

It seems to be a trick question. the minimum he would need to pull out would be 2 socks if they matched right away. If it is asking for the minimum to ensure he has a matching pair, the answer would be 5
I agree Leeandrew2 he would need to pull out 2 socks if they matched the right way. and the answer is 5.
