So we need to find the fraction of many times does purple show up in 20 trays in which every tray has 5 colors. To find the answer we need to find the overall number of all colors and that is 20 trays * 5 colors and that equals to 100 colors. So purple shows 20 times and 20/100 is 1/5 when we simplify the fraction.

Answer: Fraction of purple color is 1/5


Step-by-step explanation:

Number of color in 1 tray = 5

Number of colors in 20 trays = 20x5 = 100

Since  each tray has purple color

so number of purple color = 20

Fraction for purple color =  number of purple color/total  number of colors

[tex]\\\frac{20}{100} =\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
