The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Luis wanted to give 14 of his Denmark coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Luis, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
Jane → 111 + 39 = 150
Luis → 200 + 24 = 224
Kathy → 31 + 194 = 225
Sam → 66 + 166 = 232
Sam (D) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Denmark coins that Luis had = 4 u
4 u = 24
1 u = 24 ÷ 4 = 6
Number of coins that each child received
= 6 ÷ 3
= 2
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 2
