He spends
34 of his remaining money on some stickers.
- Amount that Bryan spends on the marbles = _____ u
- Amount that Bryan spends on the stickers = _____ u

- Difference in the amount spent on the stickers and marbles = _____ u
(a)
Fraction of his money spent on the marbles =
25 Fraction of his money left after spending on the marbles
= 1 -
25=
35 Fraction of his money spent on the stickers

820920 =
920Amount that Bryan spends on the marbles = 8 u
(b)
Amount that Bryan spends on the stickers = 9 u
(c)
Amount that Bryan has in the end
= 20 u - 9 u - 8 u
= 3 u
(d)
Difference in the amount spent on the stickers and marbles
= 9 u - 8 u
= 1 u
Answer(s): (a) 8; (b) 9; (c) 3; (d) 1
