Give the answers in units (Eg 1 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u +2).
Adam spends
215 of his money on some beads.
He spends
15 of his remaining money on some stickers.
- Amount that Adam spends on the beads = _____ u
- Amount that Adam spends on the stickers = _____ u
- Amount that Adam has in the end = _____ u
- Difference in the amount spent on the stickers and beads = _____ u
(a)
Fraction of his money spent on the beads =
215 Fraction of his money left after spending on the beads
= 1 -
215=
1315 Fraction of his money spent on the stickers
=
1315 x
15=
1375Make the denominators the same.
215 =
10751375 =
1375Amount that Adam spends on the beads = 10 u
(b)
Amount that Adam spends on the stickers = 13 u
(c)
Amount that Adam has in the end
= 75 u - 13 u - 10 u
= 52 u
(d)
Difference in the amount spent on the stickers and beads
= 13 u - 10 u
= 3 u
Answer(s): (a) 10; (b) 13; (c) 52; (d) 3
