The table shows the types of stamps collected by 4 children.
- Who collected the most number of stamps? Choose the letter. (Eg A)
- Shiyun wanted to give 12 of her England stamps to the other 3 children. If each child received the same number of stamps from Shiyun, how many stamps did each of them receive?
(a)
Number of stamps collected
(A) Jem → 110 + 21 = 131
(B) Eric → 116 + 16 = 132
(C) Shiyun → 63 + 180 = 243
(D) Elijah → 39 + 111 = 150
Shiyun (C) had the most stamps.
(b)
Number of England stamps that Shiyun had = 2 u
2 u = 180
1 u = 180 ÷ 2 = 90
Number of stamps that each child received
= 90 ÷ 3
= 30
Answer(s): (a) C; (b) 30
