On a shelf containing 53 comic books, 21 are Marvel titles, 17 are DC titles, 12 are Dark Horse titles, and 3 are Harvey titles. If Geraldo selects one title at random, find the odds against his selecting a DC title.

68% or

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the probability of Geraldo selecting a comic that isn't a DC title, we have to subtract the amount of comics that are DC titles from the total amount of comics and then divide that number by the total amount of comics.

53 - 17 = 36

36/53 = 0.679

Geraldo has a 68% chance of choosing a comic that isn't a DC title.
