The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Ben wanted to give 15 of his Belgium stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Ben, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
Eliza → 108 + 88 = 196
Ben → 161 + 60 = 221
Sarah → 38 + 190 = 228
Asher → 50 + 195 = 245
Asher (D) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Belgium stamps that Ben had = 5 u
5 u = 60
1 u = 60 ÷ 5 = 12
Number of stamps that each child received
= 12 ÷ 3
= 4
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 4
