The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- John wanted to give 15 of his Scotland stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from John, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
Vina → 107 + 61 = 168
John → 150 + 30 = 180
Ivory → 75 + 124 = 199
Billy → 24 + 185 = 209
Billy (D) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Scotland stamps that John had = 5 u
5 u = 30
1 u = 30 ÷ 5 = 6
Number of stamps that each child received
= 6 ÷ 3
= 2
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 2
