Adam puts 180 children into 5 groups.
There are 20 girls and some boys in each group.
- How many boys are there in each group?
- How many boys are there altogether?
- How many less boys than girls are there?
(a)
Number of children in each group
= 180 ÷ 5
= 36
Number of boys in each group
= 36 - 20
= 16
(b)
Total number of boys
= 5 x 16
= 80
(c)
Total number of girls
= 180 - 80
= 100
Number of less boys than girls
= 100 - 80
= 20
Answer(s): (a) 16; (b) 80; (c) 20
