There are 60 stickers in Container D and 25 stickers in Container E.
Some stickers are transferred from Container D to Container E.
Container D has 25 more stickers than Container E.
How many stickers are transferred from Container D to Container E?

Container D |
Container E |
Before |
60 |
25 |
Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u + 25 |
1 u |
Total number of stickers
= 60 + 25
= 85
Total number of stickers in the end = 1 u + 25 + 1 u = 2 u + 25
The total number of stickers at first and in the end remains unchanged.
2 u + 25 = 85
2 u = 85 - 25 = 60
1 u = 60 ÷ 2 = 30
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container D to Container E
= Number of stickers in Container E in the end - Number of stickers in Container E at first
= 30 - 25
= 5
Answer(s): 5
