105 sweets

There are 4 + 1 + 2 = 7 parts in total
Stephen gets 4 parts (or 4x)
Jim gets gets 2 parts (or 2x)

Stephen gets 30 more than Jim, we can write:
Stephen = Jim + 30
or
4x = 2x + 30
We can solve for "x":

There are:
7 * 15 = <u>105 sweets</u> altogether
Answer:
$125.25

Simplify by multiplying 8.75 by 8
Simplify by multiplying 11.25 by 5
Add
