The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Jack wanted to give 13 of his Haiti stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Jack, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
Penny → 104 + 48 = 152
Jack → 157 + 36 = 193
Vanessa → 49 + 173 = 222
Asher → 53 + 174 = 227
Asher (D) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Haiti stamps that Jack had = 3 u
3 u = 36
1 u = 36 ÷ 3 = 12
Number of stamps that each child received
= 12 ÷ 3
= 4
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 4
