The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Simon wanted to give 13 of his Vietnam stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Simon, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Della → 140 + 92 = 232
(B) Oliver → 40 + 108 = 148
(C) Gillian → 149 + 49 = 198
(D) Simon → 54 + 136 = 190
Della (A) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Vietnam stamps that Simon had = 3 u
3 u = 54
1 u = 54 ÷ 3 = 18
Number of stamps that each child received
= 18 ÷ 3
= 6
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 6
