Answer 1

Answer: 88 sweets total

Step-by-step explanation: Henry , Brian and Colin get the sweets in the ratio 4:3:4.

Let the multiple be x,

So,the number of sweets that Henry got =4x=32

X=32/4=8

The number of sweets that Brian got=3x=3×8=24,

And the number of sweets that Colin got=4x=4×8=32.

So the total number of sweets=32+24+32=88.

Answer 2

88 sweets.
