Adam has 1700 stickers altogether.
There are 400 blue stickers and
400 green stickers more than blue stickers.
The rest are red stickers.
- How many red stickers does Adam has?
- how many less red stickers than green stickers does Adam have?
(a)
Number of blue stickers = 400
Number of green stickers = 400 + 400 = 800
Total number of blue and green stickers
= 400 + 800
= 1200
Number of red stickers
= 1700 - 1200
= 500
(b)
Number of less red stickers than green stickers
= 800 - 500
= 300
Answer(s): (a) 500; (b) 300
