Adam has enough money to buy 3 stickers at $10 each.
If he does not buy the stickers, he can buy 5 beads with the same amount of money.
- How much does each bead cost?
- How much more is a sticker than a bead?
(a)
Amount that Adam has
= 3 x 10

Cost of each bead

= $6
(b)
Amount that a sticker costs more than a bead
= 10 - 6
= $4
Answer(s): (a) $6; (b) $4
