Answer:

If Joana wants to fill 10 bags of candies, she would require 50 items out of which she would need 30 candies and 20 chocolate bars.

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Number of candies in a bag = 5

Number of chocolates in a bag =
\displaystyle(2)/(5)\text{ of the candy in each bag}

Thus, based on the above information we can make the following table:

Bags Item in bag Number of chocolate Number of candies

1 5 2 5 -2 = 3

2 10 4 6

3 15 6 9

4 20 8 12

5 25 10 15

6 30 12 18

7 35 14 21

8 40 16 24

9 45 18 27

10 50 20 30

If Joanna wants to fill 10 bags of candies, she would require 50 items out of which she would need 30 candies and 20 chocolate bars.
