Bryan has 130 stickers.
Adam has 40 stickers.
- What is the sum of stickers?
- How many stickers must Bryan give to Adam so both have the same number of stickers?
- How many stickers must Adam get from Bryan so both have the same number of stickers?
(a)
Total sum of stickers
= 130 + 40
= 170
(b)
Number of stickers that Bryan has more than Adam
= 130 - 40
= 90
For both Bryan and Adam to have the same number of stickers, the extra stickers must be shared equally.
Number of stickers that Bryan must give to Adam
= 90 ÷ 2
= 45
(c)
Number of stickers that Adam must get from Bryan
= Number of stickers that Bryan must give to Adam
= 45
Answer(s): (a) 170; (b) 45; (c) 45
