The total number of pieces of candy is 234.
The number of bags are 9
The number of candy in each bag can be determined as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} n=\frac{234}{9} \\ =26 \end{gathered}[/tex]The total pieces of candy in 5 bags can be determined as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} N=n\times5 \\ =26\times5 \\ =130 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, option (b) is the correct answer.
