To find the ratio of strawberry-flavored candy to the total number of candies, we need to calculate the quantity of strawberry candy and then divide it by the total number of candies.

The quantity of strawberry-flavored candy is 10.

The total number of candies Niko owns is the sum of all three flavors: 10 + 13 + 7 = 30.

So, the ratio of the quantity of strawberry-flavored candy to the total number of candies Niko owns is 10/30.

Simplifying this ratio, we get 1/3.

Therefore, the ratio that shows the quantity of the strawberry-flavored candy to the total number of candies Niko owns is 1:3.
