Answer:

0.667; (with no additional information given) 0.500; 12/13; 1/6; 5/24;

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 black dice out of 15.  This leaves 15-5 = 10 dice that are not black; this gives us a probability of 10/15.  This would simplify to 2/3, which is the decimal 0.667.

Without any further information, we will say that there is a 50% chance of school being closed; this is 0.500.

There are 4 aces; this leaves 52-4 = 48 cards that are not aces.  This gives us the probability 48/52, which simplifies to 12/13.

There are 8 cards of each fruit out of 48 total cards.  This means the probability of drawing a card with a banana is 8/48 = 1/6.

We do not have enough information to answer the last question.
