Answer:

6  "surprise" flavors jellybeans

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

The bag contained a mixture of regular flavored jellybeans and "surprise" jellybeans.

There are 40 jellybeans in the bag.

If 15% of the jellybean were "surprise" flavors.

Then, the number of expected "surprise" jellybeans will be:

= 15% of 40 jellybeans

= (15/100) × 40

= 6  "surprise" flavors jellybeans

If  6 surprise jellybean is contained in the bag;

Thus, the number of regular flavored jellybean will be

= 40 - 6

= 34 regular flavored jellybean
