The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Simon wanted to give 12 of his Jordan coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Simon, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Mary → 107 + 83 = 190
(B) Harry → 19 + 103 = 122
(C) Shiyun → 110 + 55 = 165
(D) Simon → 78 + 103 = 181
Mary (A) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Jordan coins that Simon had = 2 u
2 u = 78
1 u = 78 ÷ 3 = 39
Number of coins that each child received
= 39 ÷ 3
= 13
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 13
