A bag contains 60 pieces of candy with different flavors: grape, strawberry, lemon, orange, apple, and watermelon. You want to run a simulation where you randomly draw one piece, replacing it each time, for 20 attempts. You decide to assign a number to represent the outcome of a specific flavor. Which range of values would you use to describe the outcomes?

We would use to describe numbers from 1 - 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

We represent the flavors as a set in Roster form.

F = {grape, strawberry, lemon, orange, apple, watermelon}

Note that that there are 6 flavors.

i. e., n (F) = 6

Since we have to assign a number for each flavor, and there are 6 flavors, we would use to describe numbers from 1 - 6.
