The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Howard wanted to give 12 of his Belgium coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Howard, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Fara → 140 + 51 = 191
(B) Asher → 21 + 142 = 163
(C) Linda → 122 + 54 = 176
(D) Howard → 90 + 100 = 190
Fara (A) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Belgium coins that Howard had = 2 u
2 u = 90
1 u = 90 ÷ 3 = 45
Number of coins that each child received
= 45 ÷ 3
= 15
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 15
