Some stickers are transferred from Container M to Container N.
Container M has 25 more stickers than Container N.
How many stickers are transferred from Container M to Container N?

- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u + 25 |
1 u |
Total number of stickers
= 80 + 35
= 115
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 = 115
2 u = 115 - 25 = 90
1 u = 90 ÷ 2 = 45
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container M to Container N
= Number of stickers in Container N in the end - Number of stickers in Container N at first
= 45 - 35
= 10
Answer(s): 10
