Tiffany has white and black shoes in her shoe box. The probability of her pulling out a white pair of shoes is 2/5. What is thechance of Tiffany randomly pulling out a black pair of shoes?

1 answer

Since there are only two possibilities (white or black), the probability of pulling out a black pair of shoes can be found by subtracting the probability of pulling out a white pair from 1:

1 - 2/5 = 3/5

Therefore, the chance of Tiffany randomly pulling out a black pair of shoes is 3/5.
