There were 28 more students in Group M than in Group N. If 11 students transferred from Group M to Group N, how many more students would be in Group M than in Group N?
|
Group M |
Group N |
|
Before |
1 u + 28 |
1 u |
|
Change |
- 11 |
+ 11 |
|
After |
1 u + 17 |
1 u + 11 |
|
Number of students that Group M had after transferring to Group N
= 1 u + 28 - 11
= 1 u + 17
Number of students that Group N had after the transfer
= 1 u + 11
Number of students in Group M more than in Group N
= 17 - 11
= 6
