    The document tests whether there is a significant difference between the observed and expected numbers of M&Ms of different colors using a chi-squared test. It calculates the chi-squared value and degrees of freedom from observed and expected values. It finds that the calculated chi-squared value is less than the critical value, so it fails to reject the null hypothesis that there is no significant difference between the observed and expected numbers.

    Title:

    Null hypothesis: There is no significant difference between the observed number of different colours of M&M's

    Colour Observed (o) Expected (e) o-e (o-e)2 (o-e)2/e


    brown 28 26 2 4 0.153846
    red 33 26 7 49 1.884615
    blue 37 48 -11 121 2.520833
    green 30 32 -2 4 0.125
    orange 35 40 -5 25 0.625
    yellow 39 28 11 121 4.321429

    Degrees of freedom = 5 Σ(o-e)2/e 9.630723

    Critical value = 11.07 Χ2 = 9.630723

    Significant difference = 0

    Conclusion:
    As the calculated value of 9.63072344322 is less than the critical
    value of 11.07 we can accept the null hypothesis.

    As the calculated value of 11.0704976935164


    mber of different colours of M&M's and the expected number at p=0.05
