Give the answers in units (Eg 1 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u +2).
Adam spends
311 of his money on some stickers.
He spends
25 of his remaining money on some beads.
- Amount that Adam spends on the stickers = _____ u
- Amount that Adam spends on the beads = _____ u
- Amount that Adam has in the end = _____ u
- Difference in the amount spent on the beads and stickers = _____ u
(a)
Fraction of his money spent on the stickers =
311 Fraction of his money left after spending on the stickers
= 1 -
311=
811 Fraction of his money spent on the beads
=
811 x
25=
1655Make the denominators the same.
311 =
15551655 =
1655Amount that Adam spends on the stickers = 15 u
(b)
Amount that Adam spends on the beads = 16 u
(c)
Amount that Adam has in the end
= 55 u - 16 u - 15 u
= 24 u
(d)
Difference in the amount spent on the beads and stickers
= 16 u - 15 u
= 1 u
Answer(s): (a) 15; (b) 16; (c) 24; (d) 1
