Answer 1

To find the ratio of the quantity of strawberry-flavored candies to the total number of candies, we first calculate the total number of candies.

The number of candies is:

• Strawberry: 10
• Butterscotch: 13
• Root Beer: 7

Total candies = 10 + 13 + 7 = 30

Next, we find the ratio of strawberry candies to the total number of candies: Ratio of strawberry candies to total candies = 10 (strawberry) : 30 (total)

Thus, the correct response is: 10:30 (ratio of 10 to 30).
