Answer:

7/10 or 70%

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the number of each color of balls together to get the total

5 + 2 + 3 = 10

Add the number of all the balls that aren't black

5 + 2 = 7

Then divide how many balls that aren't black by the total. This gives us the probability the ball you choose is not black

7/10 = 0.7 or 70%
