Given that there are 18 green caps out of 90 total basketball caps, 72 of which are not green. The probability of randomly selecting a cap that is not green is equal to 72 divided by 90. Simplifying this answer by which we divide both the numerator and the denominator by 18 will give us an answer 4/5.
