8 students share some stickers.
If 4 students give up their shares,
the rest of the students will get 10 more each.
- How many stickers are there altogether?
- How many stickers does the rest of the students each get?
(a)
Number of students that can get the extra stickers
= 8 - 4
= 4
Number of stickers that 4 students give up
= 4 x 10
= 40
Number of stickers that 1 student gives up
= 40 ÷ 4
= 10
Number of stickers altogether
= 8 x 10
= 80
(b)
Number of stickers that the rest of the students each will get
= 80 ÷ 4
= 20
Answer(s): (a) 80; (b) 20
