Ella has a box of chocolate candies. She gives of the candies to her sister, 4 to her brother, and she eats the remaining 12 candies. How many chocolate candies were in the box originally?
Step-by-step explanation: 4 plus 12 equals 16, which would be 2/3 of the box. Half of 16 is 8, which is 1/3, because half of 2/3 would be 1/3. So 4 plus 8 plus 12 equals 24, therefor, there was 24 chocolates in the box
