30 lemon candies he give his friend.

It is given that a boy had 320 candies. There were 2 flavors. 7/16 were orange flavor and the rest were lemon. He gave his friend 30 orange candies and some lemon ones.

320 (7/16)  =   140  were orange

320 - 140  =  180  were lemon

Let x be the number of lemon ones he gave  away

So,

[ 140 - 30 ]  / [ 180 - x ] =  11/15

110  =  (11/15) ( 180 - x )

(15/11) (110)  = 180 - x

150  = 180  - x

x = 180  - 150  =   30
