The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Harry wanted to give 13 of his Egypt coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Harry, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
Penny → 117 + 13 = 130
Harry → 170 + 36 = 206
Marion → 76 + 138 = 214
Seth → 89 + 167 = 256
Seth (D) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Egypt coins that Harry had = 3 u
3 u = 36
1 u = 36 ÷ 3 = 12
Number of coins that each child received
= 12 ÷ 3
= 4
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 4
