The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Owen wanted to give 15 of his Scotland stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Owen, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
May → 118 + 11 = 129
Owen → 110 + 90 = 200
Irene → 97 + 143 = 240
Flynn → 59 + 199 = 258
Flynn (D) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Scotland stamps that Owen had = 5 u
5 u = 90
1 u = 90 ÷ 5 = 18
Number of stamps that each child received
= 18 ÷ 3
= 6
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 6
