The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Irene wanted to give 12 of her Vietnam coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Irene, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Julie → 100 + 70 = 170
(B) Tim → 180 + 22 = 202
(C) Irene → 78 + 198 = 276
(D) Gabriel → 57 + 182 = 239
Irene (C) had the most coins.
(b)
Number of Vietnam coins that Irene had = 2 u
2 u = 198
1 u = 198 ÷ 2 = 99
Number of coins that each child received
= 99 ÷ 3
= 33
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 33
