Give the answers in units (Eg 1 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u +2).
Adam spends
514 of his money on some stickers.
He spends
34 of his remaining money on some marbles.
- Amount that Adam spends on the stickers = _____ u
- Amount that Adam spends on the marbles = _____ u
- Amount that Adam has in the end = _____ u
- Difference in the amount spent on the marbles and stickers = _____ u
(a)
Fraction of his money spent on the stickers =
514 Fraction of his money left after spending on the stickers
= 1 -
514=
914 Fraction of his money spent on the marbles
=
914 x

2756Make the denominators the same.
514 =
20562756 =
2756Amount that Adam spends on the stickers = 20 u
(b)
Amount that Adam spends on the marbles = 27 u
(c)
Amount that Adam has in the end
= 56 u - 27 u - 20 u
= 9 u
(d)
Difference in the amount spent on the marbles and stickers
= 27 u - 20 u
= 7 u
Answer(s): (a) 20; (b) 27; (c) 9; (d) 7
