25% chance because there is one dark one out of four

Answer:

1/4

Explanation:

You have to look at the total number of items there are in the problem, since there are 4 cubes in total and there is only 1 dark cube and three white, there will be a quarter of the chance to pull it out, compared to 3/4 of a chance to pull a white one out.
