The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Simon wanted to give 12 of his France stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Simon, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Chloe → 141 + 100 = 241
(B) Asher → 22 + 110 = 132
(C) Xylia → 135 + 98 = 233
(D) Simon → 48 + 167 = 215
Chloe (A) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of France stamps that Simon had = 2 u
2 u = 48
1 u = 48 ÷ 3 = 24
Number of stamps that each child received
= 24 ÷ 3
= 8
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 8
