Answer:

9 pieces of candy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information about how many boys there are is irrelevant, so we can just ignore that.

The important information is that the teacher has 396 pieces of candy and that it is split between 44 students equally.

So, to solve, we just do 396 / 44 = 9.

Therefore, each student will get 9 pieces of candy.
