Adam has 90 less blue stickers than green stickers.
Adam has 10 times as many green stickers as blue stickers.
- Number of green stickers
- Number of blue stickers
- Total number of stickers
- Number of less blue stickers than green stickers
(a)
The number of green stickers is 10 times the number of blue stickers.
The number of blue stickers is the smaller group.
Number of blue stickers = 1 u
Number of green stickers = 10 u
Number of less blue stickers than green stickers = 10 u - 1 u = 9 u
9 u = 90
1 u = 90 ÷ 9 = 10
Number of green stickers
= 10 u
= 10 x 10
= 100
(b)
Number of blue stickers
= 1 u
= 10
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 10 u + 1 u
= 11 u
= 11 x 10
= 110
(d)
Number of less blue stickers than green stickers
= 10 u - 1 u
= 9 u
= 9 x 10
= 90
Answer(s): (a) 100; (b) 10; (c) 110; (d) 90
