Bryan |
Before |
1 u + 391 |
1 u - 41 |
Change |
- 41 |
+ 41 |
After |
1 u + 350 |
1 u |
(a)
Total number of stickers
= 1 u + 1 u + 350
= 2 u + 350
2 u + 350 = 410
2 u = 410 - 350
2 u = 60
1 u = 60 ÷ 2 = 30
Number of stickers that Adam has at first
= 1 u + 391
= 30 + 391
= 421
(b)
Number of stickers that Bryan has in the end
= 1 u
= 30
Answer(s): (a) 421; (b) 30
