Adam has enough money to buy 5 beads at $18 each.
If he does not buy the beads, he can buy 9 stickers with the same amount of money.
- How much does each sticker cost?
- How much more is a bead than a sticker?
(a)
Amount that Adam has
= 5 x 18
= $90
Cost of each sticker
= 90 ÷ 9
= $10
(b)
Amount that a bead costs more than a sticker
= 18 - 10
= $8
Answer(s): (a) $10; (b) $8
