To find the probability, you have to divide the amount of black horses in the pasture by the total amount of horses.

Black horses in the pasture = 5
Total amount of horses = 39

5 ÷ 39 = 0.128

0.128 = 12.8%

12.8% rounded to the nearest whole percent = 13%

Answer = 13%(1st Choice)

Hope this helped :)
