Candy comes in large bags of 75 candies, a 1 pound bag, and large bags with multiple fun-size packs.

Jenny randomly opened 12 of the fun-size packs of candies from a bag.

The mean number of reds will be

[tex]\rm Mean_{r} = \dfrac{2+1+4+2+1+2+1+0+1+3+3+1}{12}\\\\Mean_{r} = \dfrac{21}{12}\\\\Mean_{r} = 1.75[/tex]

The mean number of purples will be

[tex]\rm Mean_p = \dfrac{2+2+1+3+5+2+2+2+4+2+2+0}{12}\\Mean_p = \dfrac{27}{12}\\\\Mean_p =2.25[/tex]

The mean number of red (1.75) is 0.5 less than the mean number of purple.
