Answer:total amount of sweets shared= 64 sweets.

Explanation:

Ratio of sweets shared =3:5

Total ratio=3+5=8

Ted share =24

Total amount of sweets shared can be calculated as

Ted ratio / total ratio X total amount of sweets = Ted's share

3/8 x total amount of sweets =24

total amount of sweets =(24 x8)/3

total amount of sweets =192/3

total amount of sweets =64 sweets
