The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Neave wanted to give 13 of his Belgium coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Neave, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Nora → 144 + 90 = 234
(B) Jack → 82 + 103 = 185
(C) Pamela → 169 + 27 = 196
(D) Neave → 72 + 121 = 193
Nora (A) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Belgium coins that Neave had = 3 u
3 u = 72
1 u = 72 ÷ 3 = 24
Number of coins that each child received
= 24 ÷ 3
= 8
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 8
