The probability of getting a piece of chocolate or a lollipop would be [tex] \frac{28}{35} [/tex]. You can find this by first adding all of the values of the amount of chocolate, lollipops, and licorice. Then, add the value of the amount of chocolate and lollipops.

28/35. Add the total amounts of candy (35) and then add the amounts of chocolate or lollipops (16+12 = 28) and then place over 35.

28/35
