Answer:
There are 20 candies which are not chocolates are in the bag.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Number of candies in bag = [tex]x[/tex]
Number of candies that are chocolate =
[tex]\dfrac{4}{9}\text{ of the total candies}[/tex]
Number of chocolate candies in the bag =
[tex]=\dfrac{4}{9}\times x=\dfrac{4x}{9}[/tex]
We are given that x = 36.
We have to find the number of candies which are not chocolates are in the bag.
Number of chocolate candies in the bag =
[tex]=\dfrac{4}{9}\times 36 = 16[/tex]
There are 16 chocolate candies in the bag.
Number of candies that are not chocolate =
[tex]= 36-16\\=20[/tex]
Thus, there are 20 candies which are not chocolates are in the bag.
