Answer:

Number of candies with Ian = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ian has [tex]x[/tex] candies.

Number of candies with Jason = [tex]3x[/tex]

Number of candies with Shawn = [tex]4(3x)=12x[/tex]

Total number of candies = 64

So,

[tex]x+3x+12x=64\\16x=64\\x=4[/tex]

Therefore,

Number of candies with Ian = 4
