Answer 2

There were fifteen candies in that bag. Now there is only one left.

Explanation:

• The given sentences are referring to the situations at different points of time.
• The initial condition is of the past and since "candies" is plural, "were" should be used in the first blank.
• Then the condition of the present is denoted by "now".
• Since there is a single candy left. so "is" needs to be inserted.
• The given case is of subject-verb agreement.
