Answer:

1.26 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mr. Snow bought 90 grams of Christmas candy for each of his 14 grandchildren. We are asked to find the amount of candy bought by Mr. Snow in kilograms.

First of all, we will find the amount of candy in grams by multiplying 90 grams by 14 as:

$\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=14\times 90$

$\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=1260$

We know that 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. To convert 1260 grams into kg, we will divide 1260 by 1000 as:

$\text{Amount of candy bought in kilograms}=\frac{1260}{1000}$

$\text{Amount of candy bought in kilograms}=1.26$

Therefore, Mr. Snow bought 1.26 kilograms of candy.

Since the sum of all probabilities of all all elementary events will always be equal to 1. Furthermore, the probabilities of all mutually exclusive set of events that is part of the entire sample space will always be total of 1.

So in the problem, the answer is 1/8.
1/8 for red + 3/8 for green + 3/8 for yellow + 1/8 for blue = 8/8 or 1.
