Kishore has 4 pairs of shoes; each pair is a different color. If Kim randomly selects 2 shoes without replacement from the 8 shoes, what is the probability that she will select 2 shoes of the same color?	Select the correct option
A) 2/5  B) 1/5  C) 1/9  D) 1/7  E) 1/25
Can be tackled in this way as well: Probability of selecting any 1 out of 8 shoes = 8/8=

1   Probability of selecting the next shoe (out of 8 available) having the same color= 1/7 (as after selecting the 1st one, there is only 1 another shoe left with the same color).   Thus the total probability = 1*1/7=1/7.   1/7 is the correct answer.
