Adam has 70 stickers.
Bryan has 30 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
= 70 + 30
= 100
(b)
Number of stickers that Adam has more than Bryan
= 70 - 30
= 40
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
= 40 ÷ 2
= 20
(c)
Number of stickers that Bryan must get from Adam
= Number of stickers that Adam must give to Bryan
= 20
Answer(s): (a) 100; (b) 20; (c) 20
