33.6  or 34 red

16.8  or 17 orange

16.8  or 17 green

Step-by-step explanation:

7 x 24 = 168 candies

blue = b

brown = w

yellow = y

red = r

orange = o

green = g

1b = 3w + 2y + 2r + 1o + 1g

1 +3 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 10

168/10 = 16.8

1(16.8) +3(16.8) + 2(16.8) + 2(16.8) + 1(16.8) + 1(16.8) =

16.8 blue

50.4 brown

33.6 yellow

33.6 red

16.8 orange

16.8 green
