To represent the situation with an equation, we can start with the total number of candies \( j \). If you eat 4 candies and end up with 10 left, we can express this mathematically with the following equation:
\[
j - 4 = 10
\]
This equation states that if you subtract 4 candies from the total \( j \), you will have 10 candies remaining.
\[
j - 4 = 10
\]
This equation states that if you subtract 4 candies from the total \( j \), you will have 10 candies remaining.
