Rael and Albert shared some stickers. Rael took
37 of the stickers. After Rael lost 10 stickers, Albert had four times as many stickers as Rael. How many stickers did Albert have in the end?

| Before |
3 u |
4 u |
| Change |
- 10 |
|
| After |
1x1 =
1 u |
4x1 =
4 u |
The number of stickers that Albert had remains the same. Make the number of stickers that Albert had the same. LCM of 4 and 4 is 4.
Number of stickers that Rael lost
= 3 u - 1 u
= 2 u
2 u = 10
1 u = 10 ÷ 2 = 5
Number of stickers that Albert had in the end
= 4 u
= 4 x 5
= 20
Answer(s): 20
