The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Warren wanted to give 12 of his Oman coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Warren, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
Elsa → 107 + 98 = 205
Warren → 190 + 18 = 208
Elyse → 57 + 171 = 228
Tommy → 84 + 170 = 254
Tommy (D) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Oman coins that Warren had = 2 u
2 u = 18
1 u = 18 ÷ 2 = 9
Number of coins that each child received
= 9 ÷ 3
= 3
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 3
