The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Brandon wanted to give 12 of his Italy coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Brandon, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
Vina → 101 + 62 = 163
Brandon → 138 + 54 = 192
Hilda → 81 + 139 = 220
Cody → 47 + 190 = 237
Cody (D) has the most coins.
(b)
Number of Italy coins that Brandon had = 2 u
2 u = 54
1 u = 54 ÷ 2 = 27
Number of coins that each child received
= 27 ÷ 3
= 9
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 9
