The lengths of the top/bottom interior edges are $5-2=3$ inches (since there is 1 inch of frame to either side of the interior rectangular hole). Let the lengths of the left/right interior edges be $x$ inches. Then, the lengths of the left/right exterior edges are $x+2$ inches. The area of the frame is equal to the area of the frame rectangle minus the area of the hole. This is equal to $5\cdot(x+2)-3x=2x+10$. Since we are given that this area is 18 square inches, we have the equation $2x+10=18\Rightarrow x=4$. So the dimensions of the interior hole are $3\times4$. Thus, the sum of the four interior edges is $3+4+3+4=\boxed{14}$ inches.
Since the total number of marbles is 40, that is our size of the sample. there are 16 red ones on that sample, so the probability of extracting a red marble from the box is given by the ratio of successes divided the total number of marbles:
