Answer 1

Given: a bag of skittles with colors and their frequencies

The total number of skittles = 10 + 16 + 20 + 18 = 64

The number of skittles with red color = 10

So, the relative frequency = 10/64 = 0.15625

Rounding the answer to the nearest hundredth

So, the answer will be relative frequency = 0.16
