Some stickers are transferred from Container C to Container D.
Container D has 15 more stickers than Container C.
How many stickers are transferred from Container C to Container D?
|
Container C |
Container D |
Before |
30 |
15 |
Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u |
1 u + 15 |
Total number of stickers
= 30 + 15
= 45
In the end
Total number of stickers = 1 u + 1 u + 15 = 2 u + 15
The total number of stickers at first and in the end remains unchanged.
2 u + 15 = 45
2 u = 45 - 15 = 30
1 u = 30 ÷ 2 = 15
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container C to Container D
= Number of stickers in Container C at first - Number of stickers in Container C in the end
= 30 - 15
= 15
Answer(s): 15
