There are 70 stickers in Container Q and 50 stickers in Container R.
Some stickers are transferred from Container Q to Container R.
Container R has 30 more stickers than Container Q.
How many stickers are transferred from Container Q to Container R?
|
Container Q |
Container R |
Before |
70 |
50 |
Change |
- ? |
+ ? |
After |
1 u |
1 u + 30 |
Total number of stickers
= 70 + 50
= 120
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 = 120
2 u = 120 - 30 = 90
1 u = 90 ÷ 2 = 45
Number of stickers that are transferred from Container Q to Container R
= Number of stickers in Container Q at first - Number of stickers in Container Q in the end
= 70 - 45
= 25
Answer(s): 25
