- 1 u = _____
Choose the person who has less stickers to be 1 u.
Bryan has 6 less stickers than Adam.
So, Bryan has less stickers.
(a)
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 1 u
(b)
Number of stickers that Adam has = 1 u + 6
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 1 u + 1 u + 6
= 2 u + 6
(d)
Total number of stickers = 16
2 u + 6 = 16
2 u = 16 - 6 = 10
1 u = 10 ÷ 2 = 5
Answer(s): (a) 1 u; (b) 1 u + 6; (c) 2 u + 6; (d) 5
