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.

The fraction of the colors in 20 trays that is purple is 5 1 ​ . This is calculated by determining the total number of colors and the number of purple colors across the trays. Each tray contributes one purple color to the total.
