13 of Adam's stickers is 8 more than
18 of Bryan's stickers.
Let
18 of Bryan's stickers be 1 u.
- Number of stickers that Bryan has = _____
- Number of stickers that Adam has = _____
- Total number of stickers = _____
- Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam = _____
(a)
18 of Bryan's stickers = 1 u
88 of Bryan's stickers = 8 u
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 8 u
(b)
13 of Adam's stickers =
18 of Bryan's stickers + 8
13 of Adam's stickers = 1 u + 8
33 of Adam's stickers = 3(1 u + 8) = 3 u + 24
Number of stickers that Adam has = 3 u + 24
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 8 u + 3 u + 24
= 11 u + 24
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan
= 8 u - (3 u + 24)
= 5 u - 3 u - 24
= 5 u - 24
Answer(s): (a) 8 u; (b) 3 u + 24; (c) 11 u + 24; (d) 5 u - 24
