The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Xavier wanted to give 14 of his Kenya stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Xavier, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
Mandy → 110 + 73 = 183
Xavier → 129 + 60 = 189
Joelle → 42 + 182 = 224
Ken → 38 + 192 = 230
Ken (D) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Kenya stamps that Xavier had = 4 u
4 u = 60
1 u = 60 ÷ 4 = 15
Number of stamps that each child received
= 15 ÷ 3
= 5
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 5
