Socks

Answer :  3 socks

AI answer
To guarantee that you have either a pair of red socks or a pair of blue socks, you only need to take three socks from the drawer.
This is known as the Pigeonhole Principle.

The worst-case scenario is that you pick two red socks and one blue sock (or vice versa).
In either case, the next sock you pick will complete a pair of one color or the other, ensuring that you have a matching pair.
