In an activity, Hilda collected 200 stickers. She collected 5 times as many stickers as Jane.
- How many stickers did Jane collect?
- How many more stickers did Hilda collect than Jane?
(a)
Number of stickers that Jane collected = 1 u
Number of stickers that Hilda collected = 5 u = 200
5 u = 200
1 u = 200 ÷ 5 = 40
Number of stickers that Jane collected
= 1 u
= 40
(b)
Number of stickers that Hilda collected more than Jane
= 200 - 40
= 160
Answer(s): (a) 40; (b) 160
