The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Cody wanted to give 12 of his Scotland coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Cody, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Mara → 135 + 80 = 215
(B) Michael → 13 + 164 = 177
(C) Abi → 142 + 46 = 188
(D) Cody → 54 + 140 = 194
Mara (A) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Scotland coins that Cody had = 2 u
2 u = 54
1 u = 54 ÷ 3 = 27
Number of coins that each child received
= 27 ÷ 3
= 9
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 9
