The number of stickers that Fanny had at first and in the end remains unchanged. Make the number of stickers that Fanny had the same. LCM of 12 and 4 is 12.
Number of stickers that Fanny had more than Jaslyn at first
= 12 u - 5 u
= 7 u
7 u = 154
1 u = 154 ÷ 7 = 22
Number of stickers that Jaslyn had at first
= 5 u
= 5 x 22
= 110
Answer(s): 110
