15 of Adam's stickers is 10 more than
19 of Bryan's stickers.
Let
19 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)
19 of Bryan's stickers = 1 u
99 of Bryan's stickers = 9 u
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 9 u
(b)
15 of Adam's stickers =
19 of Bryan's stickers + 10
15 of Adam's stickers = 1 u + 10
55 of Adam's stickers = 5(1 u + 10) = 5 u + 50
Number of stickers that Adam has = 5 u + 50
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 9 u + 5 u + 50
= 14 u + 50
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan
= 9 u - (5 u + 50)
= 4 u - 5 u - 50
= 4 u - 50
Answer(s): (a) 9 u; (b) 5 u + 50; (c) 14 u + 50; (d) 4 u - 50
