Answer: 100 candy bars

Explanation:

You did not include the question but judging by the progression I can assume that the question is along the lines of how many candy bars they will need to sell to reach their target.

You did not include the amount they have to raise as well so let us assume that number is $375.

Assuming they have to raise $375 and they have already raised $125, the amount left to be raised is:

= 375 - 125

= $250

With each candy bar selling at $2.50, the number of candy bars they will need to sell is:

= 250/ 2.50

= 100 candy bars

You should use this process to find the answer to your question.
