Answer:
He can give candy to 12 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that , each person gets [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] of a bar.
It is also said that, [tex](2)(\frac{3}{4}) = \frac{3}{2}[/tex] of a bar is there.
Let the number of people be "n".
Thus the equation is,
[tex](\frac{1}{8})(n) = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]
[tex]n = (\frac{3}{2})(\frac{8}{1}) = 12[/tex]
Thus the total number of people are 12.
