The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Marion wanted to give 15 of her Greece coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Marion, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Chloe → 101 + 48 = 149
(B) Wesley → 101 + 88 = 189
(C) Marion → 52 + 180 = 232
(D) Reggie → 53 + 174 = 227
Marion (C) had the most coins.
(b)
Number of Greece coins that Marion had = 5 u
5 u = 180
1 u = 180 ÷ 5 = 36
Number of coins that each child received
= 36 ÷ 3
= 12
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 12
