I would also say the answer is 4/5. Chocolate is 4/5 because 1/5 is toffee. 1/5 + 4/5 = 5/5 or all sweets(chocolate and toffee).

I'd guess 4/5 because 5 - 1 = 4. That's assuming that the chocolate is the remainder.

There are 15 sweets in a bag. 10 of the sweets are toffee and 5 are mint. Reece takes two of the sweets at random. Work out the probability that Reece takes one of each type of sweet.
