12 of Adam's stickers is 3 more than
14 of Bryan's stickers.
Let
14 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)
14 of Bryan's stickers = 1 u
44 of Bryan's stickers = 4 u
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 4 u
(b)
12 of Adam's stickers =
14 of Bryan's stickers + 3
12 of Adam's stickers = 1 u + 3
22 of Adam's stickers = 2(1 u + 3) = 2 u + 6
Number of stickers that Adam has = 2 u + 6
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 4 u + 2 u + 6
= 6 u + 6
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan
= 4 u - (2 u + 6)
= 2 u - 2 u - 6
= 2 u - 6
Answer(s): (a) 4 u; (b) 2 u + 6; (c) 6 u + 6; (d) 2 u - 6
