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

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