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.

And sizes, you forgot sizes.......

BTW, you're just guessing ;-)
.........aren't you?

It is not possible to derive the theory of quantum mechanics ab inito, any
more than Euclid could have formulated his geometry without introducing
certain basic postulates. These are unprovable in themselves, but once
accepted their logical consequences lead to a theory of great predictive
power.
