Answer:

8 M&Ms and 9 Candy Bars

Step-by-step explanation:

$15 dollars could buy 15 candy bars, and there are 17 pieces of candy total.

Prioritizing the number of bars:

0.75 * 2 = 1.50

1.50 * 2 = 3

At least $3 were spend on M&Ms, meaning 4 M&Ms and 12 candy bars, which is only 16 candy pieces...

8 M&Ms and 9 candy bars is equivalent to 17 total candy pieces.
