Each bag of stickers has 5 stickers.
One bag of stickers costs $9.
- What is the most number of friends that he can give to so that each friend gets 9 stickers?
- How much does Adam have to spend?

Number of bags that Adam can buy
= 136 ÷ 9
= 15 r 1
Number of stickers that Adam can buy
= 15 x 5

Number of sets of 9 stickers
= 75 ÷ 9
= 8 r 3
Most number of friends that he can give to = 8
(b)
Amount that Adam has to spend
= 15 x 9
= $135
Answer(s): (a) 8; (b) $135
