The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Victoria wanted to give 12 of her Iraq coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Victoria, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Opal → 112 + 58 = 170
(B) Billy → 144 + 49 = 193
(C) Victoria → 91 + 156 = 247
(D) Ian → 20 + 188 = 208
Victoria (C) had the most coins.
(b)
Number of Iraq coins that Victoria had = 2 u
2 u = 156
1 u = 156 ÷ 2 = 78
Number of coins that each child received
= 78 ÷ 3
= 26
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 26
