Adam has
59 as many as Charlie.
Bryan has 40 less stickers than Adam.
Let the number of stickers that Charlie has be 9 u.
- Number of stickers that Adam has = _____
- Number of stickers that Bryan has = _____
- Total number of stickers = _____
- Number of stickers that Charlie has more than Bryan = _____
(a)
Let the number of stickers that Charlie has = 9 u
Number of stickers that Adam has = 5 u
(b)
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 5 u - 40
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 9 u + 5 u + 5 u - 40
= 19 u - 40
(d)
Number of stickers that Charlie has more than Bryan
= 9 u - (5 u - 40)
= 9 u - 5 u + 40
= 4 u + 40
Answer(s): (a) 5 u; (b) 5 u - 40; (c) 19 u - 40; (d) 4 u + 40
