The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Rael wanted to give 12 of his Haiti coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Rael, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
Molly → 116 + 43 = 159
Rael → 123 + 66 = 189
Kylie → 57 + 173 = 230
Bobby → 52 + 199 = 251
Bobby (D) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Haiti coins that Rael had = 2 u
2 u = 66
1 u = 66 ÷ 2 = 33
Number of coins that each child received
= 33 ÷ 3
= 11
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 11
