For this item, we let x be the amount of the white chocolate in the candy. With this representation and given that there is 3 lbs of peppermint sticks, the total mass of the candy is x+3.

Since white chocolate comprises the 75% of the candy, we make an equation that is,
                                    x / (x + 3) = 0.75
The value of x from the equation is 9 lbs.

Ok so assuming that the 'x' means multiply and not 'x' as in placeolder we do

PEMDAS
parenthaseees
exponents
multipilcation or division
additon or subtraction

parethasees simplify first
(8+7)=15


(9-3)=6

now we have
2x(15)-6/2x(6)
multiply
2x15=30

6/2x6=36/2=18

now we have
30-18
