The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Erika wanted to give 13 of her Belgium stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Erika, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Mandy → 115 + 52 = 167
(B) George → 145 + 45 = 190
(C) Erika → 68 + 135 = 203
(D) Flynn → 35 + 163 = 198
Erika (C) had the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Belgium stamps that Erika had = 3 u
3 u = 135
1 u = 135 ÷ 3 = 45
Number of stamps that each child received
= 45 ÷ 3
= 15
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 15
