The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Jeremy wanted to give 12 of his Mexico stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Jeremy, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Ella → 150 + 77 = 227
(B) Flynn → 39 + 104 = 143
(C) Pamela → 151 + 38 = 189
(D) Jeremy → 54 + 116 = 170
Ella (A) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Mexico stamps that Jeremy had = 2 u
2 u = 54
1 u = 54 ÷ 3 = 27
Number of stamps that each child received
= 27 ÷ 3
= 9
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 9
