Fill in the blanks with units (Eg 1 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u + 2).
Bryan and Adam have 150 beads.
Bryan has 20 more beads than Adam.
- Number of beads that Bryan has = _____
- Number of beads that Adam has = _____
- Total number of beads = _____
- 1u = _____
Choose the person who has less beads to be 1 u.
Bryan has 20 more beads than Adam.
So, Adam has less beads.
(a)
Number of beads that Bryan has = 1 u + 20
(b)
Number of beads that Adam has = 1 u
(c)
Total number of beads
= 1 u + 20 + 1 u
= 2 u + 20
(d)
Total number of beads = 150
2 u + 20 = 150
2 u = 150 - 20 = 130
1u = 130 ÷ 2 = 65
Answer(s): (a) 1 u + 20 or 20 + 1 u; (b) 1u; (c) 2 u + 20 or 20 + 2 u; (d) 65
