    12 chocolates

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Represent the original number of chocolates by c.

    Then (1/4) (2/3) c = 2

    Solving this for c, we multiply both sides by 4: (2/3) c = 8

    and then multiply both sides by (3/2) : c = (3/2) (8) = 12

    Originally the box contained 12 chocolates.
