Bryan |
Before |
1 u + 252 |
1 u - 32 |
Change |
- 32 |
+ 32 |
After |
1 u + 220 |
1 u |
(a)
Total number of stickers
= 1 u + 1 u + 220
= 2 u + 220
2 u + 220 = 320
2 u = 320 - 220
2 u = 100
1 u = 100 ÷ 2 = 50
Number of stickers that Adam has at first
= 1 u + 252
= 50 + 252
= 302
(b)
Number of stickers that Bryan has in the end
= 1 u
= 50
Answer(s): (a) 302; (b) 50
