The correct option is C 68
Total packets of candies $= 9$
Number of packets containing 8 candies $= 5$
Number of candies present in these packets $= 8 \times 5 = 40$
Number of packets containing 7 candies $= 9 - 5 = 4$
Number of candies present in these packets $= 7 \times 4 = 28$
Total number of candies bought $= 40 + 28 = 68$
