The table shows the types of coins collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of coins? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Tammy wanted to give 13 of her Chile coins to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of coins from Tammy, how many coins did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of coins collected
(A) Opal → 119 + 23 = 142
(B) Oliver → 166 + 16 = 182
(C) Tammy → 97 + 171 = 268
(D) Lee → 10 + 189 = 199
Tammy (C) had the most coins.
(b)
Number of Chile coins that Tammy had = 3 u
3 u = 171
1 u = 171 ÷ 3 = 57
Number of coins that each child received
= 57 ÷ 3
= 19
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 19
