The common statistical error that could account for Terri's bag of candies not conforming to the manufacturer's standards is: "The sample is not large enough."

In this case, the difference between the observed frequencies of colors in Terri's bag of candies and the manufacturer's standards might be due to random sampling variation. With a larger sample size, the observed frequencies would likely get closer to the expected frequencies based on the manufacturer's standards.
