Sorry I have to ask again but left and rights do matter so how many? Gloria's favorite colors are pink and yellow. She has sox in those colors, of course, but she really likes gloves!
In her glove drawer, there are six pairs of pink gloves, and six pairs of yellow gloves, but the gloves are all mixed up. In complete darkness, how many gloves does Gloria have to take from the drawer in order to be sure she gets one pair? She doesn't mind whether it is a pink or yellow pair.

if she removes six or less gloves she may get all of one colour... seven or more and she has to have at least one pair...
