The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Bryan wanted to give 14 of his Malaysia coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Bryan, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Mary → 139 + 93 = 232
(B) Zane → 52 + 124 = 176
(C) Linda → 122 + 18 = 140
(D) Bryan → 48 + 151 = 199
Mary (A) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Malaysia coins that Bryan had = 4 u
4 u = 48
1 u = 48 ÷ 3 = 12
Number of coins that each child received
= 12 ÷ 3
= 4
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 4
