The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Tina wanted to give 12 of her Haiti coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Tina, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Opal → 100 + 24 = 124
(B) Ian → 121 + 63 = 184
(C) Tina → 82 + 126 = 208
(D) Julian → 29 + 176 = 205
Tina (C) had the most coins.
(b)
Number of Haiti coins that Tina had = 2 u
2 u = 126
1 u = 126 ÷ 2 = 63
Number of coins that each child received
= 63 ÷ 3
= 21
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 21
