    Number of candy left = 5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    Number of bags = 4

    Number of candies in each bag = 8

    Number of Gift boxes = 9

    Find:

    Number of candy left = ?

    Computation:

    Total number of candies = Number of bags * Number of candies in each bag

    Total number of candies = 4 * 8

    Total number of candies = 32

    According to Euclid division lemma:

    a = bq + r

    32 = (3) (9) + Remainder

    32 = 27 + Remainder

    Remainder = 5

    Number of candy left = 5
