There were 30 more children in Group Y than in Group Z. If 8 children transferred from Group Y to Group Z, how many more children would be in Group Y than in Group Z?
| |
Group Y |
Group Z |
|
| Before |
1 u + 30 |
1 u |
|
| Change |
- 8 |
+ 8 |
|
| After |
1 u + 22 |
1 u + 8 |
|
Number of children that Group Y had after transferring to Group Z
= 1 u + 30 - 8
= 1 u + 22
Number of children that Group Z had after the transfer
= 1 u + 8
Number of children in Group Y more than in Group Z
= 22 - 8
= 14
Answer(s): 14
