The total of the towels in the closet are not white is 15.
Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.
The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.
We are given:
10 white towels
The probabailty P( choosing a white towel) = 2/5.
To 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.
Now Subtract the number of white towels from the total to find the number non-white towels:
25 - 10 = 15 towels.
