9. Mr Ribbans has to leave home early for a before school lesson. He does not want
to wake his wife so he does not turn on the lights. He goes to the sock drawer and
chooses two socks. There are 10 black, 6 grey and 4 navy socks, however they are
all mixed up. What is the probability that Mr Ribbans arrives at school with a pair
of 2 matching socks?
