a closet of towels contains exactly 10 white towels. the probability of choosing a white towel from the closet is 2/5. how many of the towels in the closet are not white?

Hey there! :)

15 towels.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

10 white towels

P( choosing a white towel) = 2/5.

Find the total number of towels in the closet:

2/5x = 10

Divide both sides by 2/5:

2/5x · (5/2) = 10 · (5/2)

x = 25.

Subtract the number of white towels from the total to find the number non-white towels:

25 - 10 = 15 towels.

you didn't give me the choices, so i will just give you the graph so you can look at your choices and choose the right one.
