The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Bobby wanted to give 12 of his Scotland stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Bobby, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
Zoe → 113 + 35 = 148
Bobby → 103 + 54 = 157
Esther → 18 + 168 = 186
Cody → 41 + 195 = 236
Cody (D) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Scotland stamps that Bobby had = 2 u
2 u = 54
1 u = 54 ÷ 2 = 27
Number of stamps that each child received
= 27 ÷ 3
= 9
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 9
