    Answer:7 sweet

    Step-by-step explanation:

    june:gavyn:alex=2:2:1

    June get 14 sweets

    sum of ratio=2+2+1=5

    (June ratio) / (total ratio) x (total sweet) = (June sweet)

    2/5 x (total sweet) = 14

    Cross multiplying

    2 (total sweet) = 14x5

    2 (total sweet) = 70

    Total sweet=70/2

    Total sweet=35

    Alex sweet=1/5 x 35

    Alex sweet=35/5

    Alex sweet=7
