Lee and Joelle share some stickers.
57 of Lee's stickers is equal to
59 of Joelle's stickers. Given that Joelle has 10 stickers more than Lee, how many stickers do they have altogether?
57 of Lee's stickers = 59 of Joelle's stickers
Number of Lee's stickers = 7 u
Number of Joelle's stickers = 9 u
Number of stickers that Joelle has more than Lee
= 9 u - 7 u
= 2 u
2 u = 10
1 u = 10 ÷ 2 = 5
Total number of stickers
= 7 u + 9 u
= 16 u
= 16 x 5
= 80
Answer(s): 80
