Give the answers in units (Eg 1 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u +2).
Bryan spends
29 of his money on some beads.
He spends
23 of his remaining money on some stickers.
- Amount that Bryan spends on the beads = _____ u
- Amount that Bryan spends on the stickers = _____ u
- Amount that Bryan 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 =
29 Fraction of his money left after spending on the beads
= 1 -
29=
79 Fraction of his money spent on the stickers

6271427 =
1427Amount that Bryan spends on the beads = 6 u
(b)
Amount that Bryan spends on the stickers = 14 u
(c)
Amount that Bryan has in the end
= 27 u - 14 u - 6 u
= 7 u
(d)
Difference in the amount spent on the stickers and beads
= 14 u - 6 u
= 8 u
Answer(s): (a) 6; (b) 14; (c) 7; (d) 8
