The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Cathy wanted to give 13 of her Greece stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Cathy, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Emily → 109 + 42 = 151
(B) Paul → 176 + 11 = 187
(C) Cathy → 86 + 135 = 221
(D) Luke → 32 + 170 = 202
Cathy (C) had the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Greece stamps that Cathy had = 3 u
3 u = 135
1 u = 135 ÷ 3 = 45
Number of stamps that each child received
= 45 ÷ 3
= 15
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 15
