    You want to guarantee that you get a pair of black socks

    if you had extrememly bad luck, you pulled out all the green socks, that's 19 socks, then you pulled out 2 which, of course, are both black

    so it would be 19+2 or 21

    you would need to pull out 21 socks to be absolutely sure you got at least 1 pair of black socks
