The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Wendy wanted to give 14 of her Haiti stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Wendy, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Mara → 119 + 21 = 140
(B) Oliver → 150 + 49 = 199
(C) Wendy → 48 + 192 = 240
(D) Ivan → 18 + 183 = 201
Wendy (C) had the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Haiti stamps that Wendy had = 4 u
4 u = 192
1 u = 192 ÷ 4 = 48
Number of stamps that each child received
= 48 ÷ 3
= 16
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 16
