Answer: [tex]\dfrac12[/tex] of candy is left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Fraction of candy bar I got = [tex]\dfrac14[/tex]

Fraction of candy bar friend got = [tex]\dfrac14[/tex]

Considering whole candy as 1.

Then, fraction of candy left = [tex]1-\dfrac14-\dfrac14[/tex]

[tex]=1-\dfrac24\\\\=1-\dfrac12\\\\=\dfrac12[/tex]

Hence, [tex]\dfrac12[/tex] of candy is left.
