The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Shannon wanted to give 15 of her Chile stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Shannon, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Emily → 109 + 20 = 129
(B) Owen → 128 + 80 = 208
(C) Shannon → 66 + 165 = 231
(D) Ethan → 29 + 197 = 226
Shannon (C) had the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Chile stamps that Shannon had = 5 u
5 u = 165
1 u = 165 ÷ 5 = 33
Number of stamps that each child received
= 33 ÷ 3
= 11
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 11
