Respuesta :

The total number of pieces of candy is 234.

The number of bags are 9

The number of candy in each bag can be determined as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} n=\frac{234}{9} \\ =26 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The total pieces of candy in 5 bags can be determined as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} N=n\times5 \\ =26\times5 \\ =130 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, option (b) is the correct answer.
