The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Howard wanted to give 13 of his Iraq stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Howard, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Anna → 150 + 62 = 212
(B) Ben → 29 + 106 = 135
(C) Usha → 159 + 26 = 185
(D) Howard → 90 + 116 = 206
Anna (A) has the most stamps.
(b)
Number of Iraq stamps that Howard had = 3 u
3 u = 90
1 u = 90 ÷ 3 = 30
Number of stamps that each child received
= 30 ÷ 3
= 10
Answer(s): (a) A; (b) 10
