Fill in the blanks.
For (a) to (d), give the answers in units (Eg 1 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u + 2).
Adam and Bryan have some stickers.
15 of Adam's stickers is 3 less than
110 of Bryan's stickers.
Let
15 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 Bryan and Adam = _____
(a)
15 of Adam's stickers = 1 u
55 of Adam's stickers = 5 u
(b)
110 of Bryan's stickers =
15 of Adam's stickers + 3
110 of Bryan's stickers = 1 u + 3
1010 of Bryan's stickers = 10(1 u + 3) = 10 u + 30
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 5 u + 10 u + 30
= 15 u + 30
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam
= 10 u + 30 - 5 u
= 10 u - 5 u + 30
= 5 u + 30
Answer(s): (a) 5 u; (b) 10 u + 30; (c) 15 u + 30; (d) 5 u + 30
