Container K has 25 more stickers than Container L.
How many stickers are transferred from Container K to Container L?

Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u + 25 |
1 u |
Total number of stickers
= 90 + 45
= 135
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 = 135
2 u = 135 - 25 = 110
1 u = 110 ÷ 2 = 55
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
= 55 - 45
= 10
Answer(s): 10
