15 of Adam's stickers is 7 more than
16 of Bryan's stickers.
Let
16 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)
16 of Bryan's stickers = 1 u
66 of Bryan's stickers = 6 u
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 6 u
(b)
15 of Adam's stickers =
16 of Bryan's stickers + 7
15 of Adam's stickers = 1 u + 7
55 of Adam's stickers = 5(1 u + 7) = 5 u + 35
Number of stickers that Adam has = 5 u + 35
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 6 u + 5 u + 35
= 11 u + 35
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan
= 6 u - (5 u + 35)
= 1 u - 5 u - 35
= 1 u - 35
Answer(s): (a) 6 u; (b) 5 u + 35; (c) 11 u + 35; (d) 1 u - 35
