How many stickers are transferred from Container D to Container E?

Container D |
Container E |
Before |
95 |
60 |
Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u |
1 u + 15 |
Total number of stickers
= 95 + 60
= 155
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 = 155
2 u = 155 - 15 = 140
1 u = 140 ÷ 2 = 70
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container D to Container E
= Number of stickers in Container D at first - Number of stickers in Container D in the end
= 95 - 70
= 25
Answer(s): 25
