Answer:
Linda gets 33 candies
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call Linda's number of sweets x and make an equation for the total number of candies:
70 = 4+ x + x
Then simplify it:
70 = 4 + 2x
We then solve for x ( which is the number of candies Linda gets ):
70 - 4 = 4 + 2x - 4
66 = 2x
66 ÷ 2 = 2x ÷ 2
33 candies = x ( amount Linda gets )
