Angela has 15 pairs of matched socks. If she loses 5 individual socks, which of the following is NOT a possible number of matched pairs she has left? Choose the correct choice from the following:  A) 8  B) 9  C) 13  D) 11  E) 12
I think if Angela loses 5 individual socks,then she is bound to have lost minimum of 2 pairs and 1 individual sock,in this way she is left with only 12 pairs of socks (15-(2+1)).   Hence,13 cannot be the answer as maximum is 12.   Hence, option (13)
