Answer 2

Minimum number of candies to be taken without looking to ensure at least 3 candies of each type

To find the minimum number of candies to be taken without looking to ensure that there are at least 3 candies of each type, we need to consider the worst-case scenario. In this case, the worst-case scenario would be if we pick the maximum number of candies of the same type before picking any other type.

Let's calculate the minimum number of candies required for each type:

- Iris candies: There are 12 iris candies in the box. To ensure we have at least 3 iris candies, we need to pick 3 of them. - Chocolate candies: There are 13 chocolate candies in the box. To ensure we have at least 3 chocolate candies, we need to pick 3 of them. - Caramels: There are 14 caramels in the box. To ensure we have at least 3 caramels, we need to pick 3 of them.

Therefore, the minimum number of candies we need to take without looking to ensure that there are at least 3 candies of each type is 3 + 3 + 3 = 9 candies.

Please note that this calculation assumes that there are no other types of candies in the box.
