The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Esther wanted to give 14 of her Russia stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Esther, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Emily → 108 + 22 = 130
(B) Carl → 106 + 47 = 153
(C) Esther → 30 + 180 = 210
(D) Michael → 28 + 156 = 184
Esther (C) had the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Russia stamps that Esther had = 4 u
4 u = 180
1 u = 180 ÷ 4 = 45
Number of stamps that each child received
= 45 ÷ 3
= 15
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 15
