The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Wesley wanted to give 15 of his Chile coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Wesley, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
Leah → 113 + 20 = 133
Wesley → 120 + 30 = 150
Jane → 73 + 114 = 187
Ben → 22 + 193 = 215
Ben (D) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Chile coins that Wesley had = 5 u
5 u = 30
1 u = 30 ÷ 5 = 6
Number of coins that each child received
= 6 ÷ 3
= 2
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 2
