Question
Tiffany has white and black shoes in her shoe box. The probability of her pulling out a white pair of shoes is 25 . What is the chance of Tiffany randomly pulling out a black pair of shoes?(1 point)
$$

1 answer

The sum of the probabilities of all possible outcomes must equal 1.
Since the probability of pulling out a white pair of shoes is 25%, the probability of pulling out a black pair of shoes must be 100% - 25% = 75%.

Therefore, the chance of Tiffany randomly pulling out a black pair of shoes is 75%.
