Total number of white buttons :

  • 10

Total number of buttons in Total :

  • 18

Total non - white buttons :

  • 18 - 10 = 8

So, probability of randomly selecting 1 button that isn't white is ~

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: p = \dfrac{ non \: white \: }{total} [/tex]

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: p = \dfrac{8}{18} [/tex]

Or

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: p = \dfrac{ 4 }{9} [/tex]
