Solution

The correct option is B 95
Number of students in Joe's
school = 750
Number of sweets he wants to give each student = 3

∴ Number of sweets Joe
needs = 750 × 3 = 2250

Number of sweets Joe has with
himself = 2345

∴ Number of sweets he will be left with = 2345 – 2250 = 95

So, Joe will be left with 95 sweets.
