On Friday the farmer's hens laid 25 eggs There were 15 white eggs and 10 brown eggs. What is the probability that the first egg randomly selected will be white? A. (1)/(25) B. (1)/(15) C. (10)/(25) D. (15)/(25) E. (10)/(15)

To find the probability that the first egg randomly selected will be white, we need to divide the number of white eggs by the total number of eggs.<br /><br />Given:<br />- Number of white eggs = 15<br />- Total number of eggs = 25<br /><br />The probability \( P \) that the first egg selected will be white is given by:<br /><br />\[ P(\text{white egg}) = \frac{\text{Number of white eggs}}{\text{Total number of eggs}} = \frac{15}{25} \]<br /><br />So, the correct answer is:<br /><br />D. \(\frac{15}{25}\)
