    10 Sour Candies

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First you have to figure out the cost of the peppermints

    9 x 0.25 = 2.25

    Now figure out how much money Samantha has left over

    6.00 - 2.25 = $3.75

    Divide that amount by 0.35 (sour candy cost)

    3.75 / 0.35 = 10.7

    Assume that the store does not sell 0.7 of a candy, and you have

    10 Sour Candies
