Adam puts 60 children into 5 groups.
There are 10 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
= 60 ÷ 5
= 12
Number of boys in each group
= 12 - 10
= 2
(b)
Total number of boys
= 5 x 2
= 10
(c)
Total number of girls
= 60 - 10
= 50
Number of less boys than girls
= 50 - 10
= 40
Answer(s): (a) 2; (b) 10; (c) 40
