To find the probability that he will choose a gummy candy, we need to divide the number of favorable events by the number of total events, this is, divide the numbers of gummy candies by the total number of elements in the halloween bag:


P=(6)/(15)=0.4

The probability that he will choose a gummy candy is 0.4.
