There will be more black rabbits then white

Since a black rabbit has the dominant gene and the white rabbit is recessive then you would have to use a Punnett square. This determines the color of the offspring. Depending on the gender of each rabbit with their fur color it also narrows it down to less than 50% to none of the possibility to have a white rabbit.

Hope this helps! :3

Look up the punnet square but I'm preassuming that the bunnies will be mostly black. Since black fur is more dominant, it will appear more
