The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Wendy wanted to give 14 of her Peru stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Wendy, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Ella → 104 + 28 = 132
(B) Pierre → 149 + 70 = 219
(C) Wendy → 94 + 156 = 250
(D) Seth → 56 + 178 = 234
Wendy (C) had the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Peru stamps that Wendy had = 4 u
4 u = 156
1 u = 156 ÷ 4 = 39
Number of stamps that each child received
= 39 ÷ 3
= 13
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 13
