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 the chance of Tiffany randomly pulling out a black pair of shoes?(1 point)

Answer 1

Since there are only white and black shoes in the shoe box, the probability of pulling out a black pair of shoes can be calculated by subtracting the probability of pulling out a white pair of shoes from 1.

Probability of pulling out a black pair of shoes = 1 - Probability of pulling out a white pair of shoes
Probability of pulling out a white pair of shoes = 2/5

Therefore, Probability of pulling out a black pair of shoes = 1 - 2/5
Probability of pulling out a black pair of shoes = 5/5 - 2/5
Probability of pulling out a black pair of shoes = 3/5

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