Answer:

60 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

The total ratio = 2 + 2 +5 = 9

Let x = total sweets shared

Dan got 2/9 of x. This is equal to 24

the equation for this is - \frac{2}{9} × x = 24

to solve for x, divide both sides by \frac{9}{2}

x = 108 = total sweet shared

sweets malachy got = \frac{5}9} x 108 = 60 sweets
