The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Pamela wanted to give 13 of her Israel coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Pamela, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Opal → 111 + 50 = 161
(B) Albert → 107 + 77 = 184
(C) Pamela → 79 + 198 = 277
(D) Daniel → 35 + 200 = 235
Pamela (C) had the most coins.
(b)
Number of Israel coins that Pamela had = 3 u
3 u = 198
1 u = 198 ÷ 3 = 66
Number of coins that each child received
= 66 ÷ 3
= 22
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 22
