Answer:

pieces of candy = 16 × boxes of candy

Explanation:

Each "pieces" number is 16 times the corresponding "boxes" number, so we can write ...

pieces of candy = 16 × boxes of candy

__

If you like, you can assign variables. Let x = boxes of candy, and y = pieces of candy. Then you have ...

y = 16x
