14 of Bryan's stickers is 2 more than
18 of Adam's stickers.
Let
18 of Adam's stickers be 1 u.
- Number of stickers that Adam has = _____
- Number of stickers that Bryan has = _____
- Total number of stickers = _____
- Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan = _____
(a)
18 of Adam's stickers = 1 u
88 of Adam's stickers = 8 u
Number of stickers that Adam has = 8 u
(b)
14 of Bryan's stickers =
18 of Adam's stickers + 2
14 of Bryan's stickers = 1 u + 2
44 of Bryan's stickers = 4(1 u + 2) = 4 u + 8
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 4 u + 8
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 8 u + 4 u + 8
= 12 u + 8
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam
= 8 u - (4 u + 8)
= 4 u - 4 u - 8
= 4 u - 8
Answer(s): (a) 8 u; (b) 4 u + 8; (c) 12 u + 8; (d) 4 u - 8
