A drawer is filled with black shirts, white shirts, and gray shirts.One shirt is chosen at random from the drawer. Find the probability that it is not a white shirt.Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.
Let's first calculate the total number of shirts in the drawer. If we assume that there are x black shirts, y white shirts, and z gray shirts, then the total number of shirts will be x + y + z.
Now, let's calculate the probability of choosing a shirt that is not white. Since we want to choose any shirt that is not white, we are looking for the total number of black shirts and gray shirts. Therefore, the probability of choosing a shirt that is not white is (x + z) / (x + y + z).
Since we don't have specific numbers for x, y, and z, we cannot simplify this fraction further.
Therefore, the probability of choosing a shirt that is not a white shirt is (x + z) / (x + y + z).
