The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- David wanted to give 16 of his Russia stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from David, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Gem → 146 + 94 = 240
(B) John → 34 + 159 = 193
(C) Kimberly → 167 + 53 = 220
(D) David → 90 + 116 = 206
Gem (A) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Russia stamps that David had = 6 u
6 u = 90
1 u = 90 ÷ 3 = 15
Number of stamps that each child received
= 15 ÷ 3
= 5
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 5
