Answer:

176 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

162 - 30 = 132 this finds the 3/4 before he purchased more sweets.

132 divided by 3 = 44 This finds how many thirds their are. (We do 3 not 4 because 1/4 is already gone and there are only 3rds lefts.)

44 x 4 = 176 This finds the total before he purchased more.

Hope this helps!
