Answer:

4/5

Explanation:

According to the Wrigley's Consumer Care Department, the fruit candies are produced in equal proportions— 20% of each of the five colors (green, red, orange, yellow, and purple). However, although these candies are made in equal proportions, the individual Skittles bags are filled by weight and by machines but on average I'd say 4/5 chance its a green.
