    The answer is 30 cubic inches.

    If 5 chocolate candies are in 1 cubic inch, 150 chocolate candies will be in x cubic inches:

    5 chocolate candies : 1 cubic inch = 150 chocolate candies : x cubic inches

    5 : 1 = 150 : x

    5 = 150 : x

    x = 150 : 5

    x = 30

    So, if 150 chocolate candies are in a jar, the volume of the jar is 30 cubic inches.
