Adam has 160 stickers.
Bryan has 70 stickers.
- What is the sum of stickers?
- How many stickers must Adam give to Bryan so both have the same number of stickers?
- How many stickers must Bryan get from Adam so both have the same number of stickers?
(a)
Total sum of stickers
= 160 + 70
= 230
(b)
Number of stickers that Adam has more than Bryan
= 160 - 70
= 90
For both Adam and Bryan to have the same number of stickers, the extra stickers must be shared equally.
Number of stickers that Adam must give to Bryan
= 90 ÷ 2
= 45
(c)
Number of stickers that Bryan must get from Adam
= Number of stickers that Adam must give to Bryan
= 45
Answer(s): (a) 230; (b) 45; (c) 45
