Default Engineer- OR, Mathematician test

A box contained 50 red socks and 50 green socks. You withdrew two socks;
one
green and one red. What is the probability of having a matching pair on

the
next withdrawal?


If it is a quantum box, the mear fact of reaching inside has changed the
probabilities and the color of the socks.
