There were 28 more children in Group D than in Group E. If 8 children transferred from Group D to Group E, how many more children would be in Group D than in Group E?

Group D |
Group E |
|
| Before |
1 u + 28 |
1 u |
|
| Change |
- 8 |
+ 8 |
|
| After |
1 u + 20 |
1 u + 8 |
|
Number of children that Group D had after transferring to Group E
= 1 u + 28 - 8
= 1 u + 20
Number of children that Group E had after the transfer
= 1 u + 8
Number of children in Group D more than in Group E
= 20 - 8
= 12
Answer(s): 12
