Answer:
Each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the bags are identical, Let them Number of candies in each bag sue had be x. Thus, she had 5x candies. Since she lost 25 pieces, then she now has;
5x - 25 candies left.
We are told that Ted had 4 bags with the same number of candies like Sue had. Thus, he has 4x candies.
He mysteriously found 10 additional pieces. Total Ted now has is;. 4x + 10
Finally, we are told that Sue and Ted now have an equal number of candies.
Thus;
5x - 25 = 4x + 10
Rearranging, we have;
5x - 4x = 25 + 10
x = 35
Thus, each bag originally had 35 pieces of candy
So that would be the same thing as 5 4/5 - 3 2/7
Put them in mixed fractions to become 29/5 - 23/7
Multiply one side by 7 and one side by 5 to get the same denominator
203/35 - 115/35
Now subtract the numerators to get
88/35
Or if they want it inixed numbers then 2 18/35
The answer is 2/4 I believe
