M&M's Math

| Tuesday, June 15, 2004

So I grab a pack of M&M's from the vending machine. I pour 5 of them into my hand and notice there are only two colors present. I do this again, with the same result. And finally a third time with the same result.

In this bag of M&M's there are 6 colors, Red, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Brown and Green.

So the odds of this happening are???
