Adam spends $26 and buys some beads and stickers.
Each sticker is $2 and each bead is $4.
He buys 5 more beads than stickers.
- What is the cost of the 5 more beads?
- What is the cost of 1 sticker and 1 bead?
- How many beads does he buy?
(a)
Cost that Adam pays for the 5 more beads
= 5 x 4
= $20
(b)
Cost of 1 sticker and 1 bead
= 2 + 4
= $6
(c)
Cost of the beads and stickers (excluding the 5 extra beads)
= 26 - 20
= $6
Number of sets of 1 sticker and 1 bead
= 6 ÷ 6
= 1
Number of beads that Adam buys
= 1 + 5
= 6
Answer(s): (a) $20; (b) $6; (c) 6
