Verified Answer :

All you have to do is find out what 2/5 of 34 are so that would equal , 2/534= 13.6 then do that 3 = 51.4 + 3.62 ( 13.6 *2 = 3.62) = 55 candies are in the bag.

(2/5)total candies = 34
(2/5)x = 34
multiply both sides by the reciprocal (5/2) to clear the fraction coefficient.
(5/2)(2/5) x = 34(5/2)
x = 17 5
x = 85
