The Solution:

Given:

We are asked to find the probability of selecting a black cat.

By formula,

[tex]Probability=\frac{number\text{ of required outcomes}}{total\text{ possible outcomes}}[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]P(B)=\frac{number\text{ of black cats}}{total\text{ number of cats}}=\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is 7/11
