Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Given there are 56 M&M's:

  • Expected Value of Blue = 56(0.24) = 13.44
  • Expected Value of Brown = 56(0.14) = 7.84
  • Expected Value of Green = 56(0.16) = 8.96
  • Expected Value of Orange = 56(0.20) = 11.20
  • Expected Value of Red = 56(0.13) = 7.28
  • Expected Value of Yellow = 56(0.14) = 7.84

Remember to use
np to calculate expected value! This will especially be helpful if you are conducting a chi-squared test of independence.
