There are 55 stickers in Container N and 35 stickers in Container P.
Some stickers are transferred from Container N to Container P.
Container P has 30 more stickers than Container N.
How many stickers are transferred from Container N to Container P?
|
Container N |
Container P |
Before |
55 |
35 |
Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u |
1 u + 30 |
Total number of stickers
= 55 + 35
= 90
In the end
Total number of stickers = 1 u + 1 u + 30 = 2 u + 30
The total number of stickers at first and in the end remains unchanged.
2 u + 30 = 90
2 u = 90 - 30 = 60
1 u = 60 ÷ 2 = 30
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container N to Container P
= Number of stickers in Container N at first - Number of stickers in Container N in the end
= 55 - 30
= 25
Answer(s): 25
