उत्तर

Total number of balls 15
Probability of drawing a black ball at random is `2/3`
probability of black ball + probability of white ball = 1
Probability of white ball = 1- probability of black ball

Probability of drawing a white ball = `1 - 2/3 = 1/3`

Therefore, the number of white balls = `15 xx 1/3 = 5`
