Karen decided to buy a large bag of mixed candy at Walmart. 3/8 of the candy in the bag were snickers and 1/4 were twix. How would you find the fraction of candy that were neither snickers nor twix?

3/8

Explanation:

Let the number of mixed candies being bought by Karen be x. The number of snicker candies = (3/8)x and the number of twix candy = (1/4)x. Using

Total bought candy =  number of snicker candies + number of twix candy + number of neither snickers nor twix

Let the neither snickers nor twix candy be y, hence:

x = (3/8)x + (1/4)x + y

x = (5/8)x + y

y = x - (5/8)x

y = (3/8)x

Hence 3/8 of the candies in the bag was neither snickers nor twix.

lol, i think so.
