The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Oscar wanted to give 14 of his Denmark coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Oscar, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Opal → 123 + 98 = 221
(B) Glen → 10 + 160 = 170
(C) Fanny → 140 + 50 = 190
(D) Oscar → 84 + 126 = 210
Opal (A) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Denmark coins that Oscar had = 4 u
4 u = 84
1 u = 84 ÷ 3 = 21
Number of coins that each child received
= 21 ÷ 3
= 7
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 7
