Some stickers are transferred from Container V to Container W.
Container V has 35 more stickers than Container W.
How many stickers are transferred from Container V to Container W?

35 |
Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u + 35 |
1 u |
Total number of stickers
= 90 + 35
= 125
Total number of stickers in the end = 1 u + 35 + 1 u = 2 u + 35
The total number of stickers at first and in the end remains unchanged.
2 u + 35 = 125
2 u = 125 - 35 = 90
1 u = 90 ÷ 2 = 45
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container V to Container W
= Number of stickers in Container W in the end - Number of stickers in Container W at first
= 45 - 35
= 10
Answer(s): 10
