Give the answers in units (Eg 1 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u +2).
Bryan spends
413 of his money on some beads.
He spends
12 of his remaining money on some marbles.
- Amount that Bryan spends on the beads = _____ u
- Amount that Bryan spends on the marbles = _____ u
- Amount that Bryan has in the end = _____ u
- Difference in the amount spent on the marbles and beads = _____ u
(a)
Fraction of his money spent on the beads =
413 Fraction of his money left after spending on the beads
= 1 -
413=
913 Fraction of his money spent on the marbles
=
913 x
12=
926Make the denominators the same.
413 =
826926 =
926Amount that Bryan spends on the beads = 8 u
(b)
Amount that Bryan spends on the marbles = 9 u
(c)
Amount that Bryan has in the end
= 26 u - 9 u - 8 u
= 9 u
(d)
Difference in the amount spent on the marbles and beads
= 9 u - 8 u
= 1 u
Answer(s): (a) 8; (b) 9; (c) 9; (d) 1
