There are 20 white and 15 black balls in the basket. Take out 1 ball to find the probability that the ball turns out to be white.

To solve this problem, you first need to determine the total number of balls in the basket.

To do this, we sum up the known number of white and black balls.

Will be:

20 + 15 = 35 balls.

Determine the probability that the ball will turn out to be white.

To do this, divide the indicated number of white balls by their total number.

20/35 = 0.5714.

As a percentage, we get:

0.5714 * 100% = 57.14%

Answer: The probability of this event is 0.5714 or 57.14%.
