There are 80 stickers in Container K and 30 stickers in Container L.
Some stickers are transferred from Container K to Container L.
Container K has 10 more stickers than Container L.
How many stickers are transferred from Container K to Container L?

Container K |
Container L |
Before |
80 |
30 |
Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u + 10 |
1 u |
Total number of stickers
= 80 + 30
= 110
Total number of stickers in the end = 1 u + 10 + 1 u = 2 u + 10
The total number of stickers at first and in the end remains unchanged.
2 u + 10 = 110
2 u = 110 - 10 = 100
1 u = 100 ÷ 2 = 50
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container K to Container L
= Number of stickers in Container L in the end - Number of stickers in Container L at first
= 50 - 30
= 20
Answer(s): 20
