3 x 1 = 3 u |
7 x 1 = 7 u |

45 The number of blue stickers remains unchanged.
Make the number of blue stickers the same using the LCM of 7 and 1.
LCM of 7 and 1 = 7
Total number of stickers at first
= 3 u + 7 u
= 10 u
10 u = 310
1 u = 310 ÷ 10 = 31
Number of stickers that Adam buys
= 28 u - 3 u
= 25 u
= 25 x 31
= 775
Answer(s): 775
