3/8 + 2/8 = 5/8
8/8 - 1/8 = 7/8
7/8 - 5/8 = 2/8 = 1/4

Answer:
If one ball is selected at random, the odds for it being stripped are 7 out of 15, or 7/15.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that there are 15 billiard balls.
We also know that balls numbered 1 through 8 are solid-colored, so we have 8 solid-colored balls.
And the other 7 balls are striped.
Now we want to find the probability for a randomly selected ball to be a striped ball.
Because all the balls have the same probability of being randomly selected, the probability of randomly selecting a striped ball is equal to the quotient between the number of striped balls (7) and the total number of balls (15).
Then we have:
P = 7/15 = 0.467
That quotient is also what is called the "odds"
So if one ball is selected at random, the odds for it being stripped are 7 out of 15, or 7/15.
