\frac{3}{4} of the candy is not m&m's.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total pieces of candy = 140

Number of m&m's = 35

Fraction = \frac{Number\ of\ m&m}{Total\ pieces\ of\ candy}

Fraction = \frac{35}{140}

Both 35 and 140 are multiples of 7, therefore,

Fraction of m&m's = \frac{5}{20} = \frac{1}{4}

As the number of m&m's fraction and not m&m's fraction will make a total of 1, therefore

fraction of m&m's + fraction of not m&m's = 1

fraction of not m&m's = 1 - fraction of m&m's

fraction of not m&m's = 1-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{4-1}{4}

fraction of not m&m's = \frac{3}{4}

\frac{3}{4} of the candy is not m&m's.

zepelin [54]

Answer:

No I disagree, because he had 34 bottles of water at the start but, when he finished he only has 1 left. 34-1=33 so in reality he drank 33 bottles of water.
