The big M&M test (part 2)

Over two years ago I conducted my first M&M test. Time for an update I would say, because are all the different colours evenly devided in the bag in 2008..?
After a quick visit to the store I came home with 6 bags of peanut M&M's, over one and a half kilos of candy.

[ either you do it proper or don't do it at all... ]

After opening all the bags, sorting and counting them, this was the result:

741 M&M's in 6 different colours...

If you look at my sample you see the colours on average are devided quite evenly. But what should I do now with all the tested M&M's? I decided to put them back in the bags, two bags with only brown and red M&M's, two with the green and yellow ones and two bags with only blue and orange M&M's.

[ I couldn't be bothered to evenly mixing them up again... ]
