- How much does Adam have to spend?
(a)
Number of boxs that Adam can buy
= 124 ÷ 8
= 15 r 4
Number of stickers that Adam can buy
= 15 x 15
= 225
Number of sets of 8 stickers
= 225 ÷ 8
= 28 r 1
Most number of friends that he can give to = 28
(b)
Amount that Adam has to spend
= 15 x 8
= $120
Answer(s): (a) 28; (b) $120
