Duane has 30 pairs of socks in a drawer. He has 6 matched pairs and the rest are of his
pairs of socks mismatched. He packed 1/2 of his mismatched pairs in his duffle bag for a
week at summer camp. How many pairs of socks is Dune packing for summer camp?

Since Duane has 30 pairs of socks in a drawer and he has 6 matched pairs and the rest are of the socks are mismatched, the number if mismatched socks will be:

= 30 - 6

= 24 mismatched socks

Since he packed 1/2 of his mismatched pairs in his duffle bag for a week at summer camp, therefore, the number of socks he packed will be:

= 1/2 × 24

= 12

Therefore, he packed 12 socks for summer camp.
