15 of Bryan's stickers is 10 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)
15 of Bryan's stickers =
18 of Adam's stickers + 10
15 of Bryan's stickers = 1 u + 10
55 of Bryan's stickers = 5(1 u + 10) = 5 u + 50
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 5 u + 50
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 8 u + 5 u + 50
= 13 u + 50
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam
= 8 u - (5 u + 50)
= 3 u - 5 u - 50
= 3 u - 50
Answer(s): (a) 8 u; (b) 5 u + 50; (c) 13 u + 50; (d) 3 u - 50
