How many stickers are transferred from Container K to Container L?

Container K |
Container L |
Before |
55 |
55 |
Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u |
1 u + 50 |
Total number of stickers
= 55 + 55
= 110
In the end
Total number of stickers = 1 u + 1 u + 50 = 2 u + 50
The total number of stickers at first and in the end remains unchanged.
2 u + 50 = 110
2 u = 110 - 50 = 60
1 u = 60 ÷ 2 = 30
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container K to Container L
= Number of stickers in Container K at first - Number of stickers in Container K in the end
= 55 - 30
= 25
Answer(s): 25
