There were 26 more children in Group X than in Group Y. If 10 children transferred from Group X to Group Y, how many more children would be in Group X than in Group Y?
| |
Group X |
Group Y |
|
| Before |
1 u + 26 |
1 u |
|
| Change |
- 10 |
+ 10 |
|
| After |
1 u + 16 |
1 u + 10 |
|
Number of children that Group X had after transferring to Group Y
= 1 u + 26 - 10
= 1 u + 16
Number of children that Group Y had after the transfer
= 1 u + 10
Number of children in Group X more than in Group Y
= 16 - 10
= 6
Answer(s): 6
