21.25 pieces of candy have been eaten.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretty much, we have to start by finding how many times 8 can go into 34, which is 4.25. So if we are subtracting the whole from three eighths, 3/8 will equal 12.75/34. 34-12.75 = 21.25. Therefore, 21.25 pieces of candy have been eaten.
