Give the answers in units (Eg 1 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u +2).
Charlie spends
314 of his money on some beads.
He spends
38 of his remaining money on some stickers.
- Amount that Charlie spends on the beads = _____ u
- Amount that Charlie spends on the stickers = _____ u
- Amount that Charlie 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 =
314 Fraction of his money left after spending on the beads
= 1 -
314=
1114 Fraction of his money spent on the stickers
=
1114 x
38=

2411233112 =
33112Amount that Charlie spends on the beads = 24 u
(b)
Amount that Charlie spends on the stickers = 33 u
(c)
Amount that Charlie has in the end
= 112 u - 33 u - 24 u
= 55 u
(d)
Difference in the amount spent on the stickers and beads
= 33 u - 24 u
= 9 u
Answer(s): (a) 24; (b) 33; (c) 55; (d) 9
