The expected proportions of colors of M&Ms according to the Mars candy company can be found in the table below. In addition, the table contains the number of M&M's of each color that were found in a case of candy. At the 5% level, do the observed frequencies support the claim of M&M?

T: Test Statistic
The formula set up of the first and last term of the test statistic are as follows:
Round initial values to 2 decimal places:
χ2=Σ(O−E)2Eχ2=Σ(O-E)2E = ( - )^2^2/ + ... + ( - )^2^2/
Final answer from technology rounded to 2 decimal places:
χ2χ2 =
O: Obtain the P-value
Report the final answer to 4 decimal places.
It is possible when rounded that a p-value is 0.0000
P-value =
M: Make a decision
Since the p-value , we .
S: State a conclustion
There significant evidence to conclude that the distribution of for the stated distribution.
