The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Cody wanted to give 14 of his Denmark stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Cody, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
Della → 102 + 57 = 159
Cody → 155 + 24 = 179
Tammy → 14 + 181 = 195
Michael → 90 + 126 = 216
Michael (D) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Denmark stamps that Cody had = 4 u
4 u = 24
1 u = 24 ÷ 4 = 6
Number of stamps that each child received
= 6 ÷ 3
= 2
Answer(s): (a) D; (b) 2
