If you would like to know how many fruit snacks did Lauren bring to the class, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3/5 of fruit snacks is 22 fruit snacks
3/5 x = 22     /5/3
x = 22 * 5/3
x = 110/3
x = 36 2/3 fruit snacks

36 - 22 = 14 fruit snacks

Result: Lauren brought 14 fruit snacks to the class.
