(a)
Charlie has 60 stickers less than Bryan.
Adam has 100 stickers more than Charlie.
Let the number of stickers that Bryan has be 1 u.
Charlie has 60 stickers less than Bryan.
Number of stickers that Charlie has = 1 u - 60
(b)
Adam has 100 stickers more than Charlie.
Number of stickers that Adam has
= 1 u - 60 + 100
= 1 u + 40
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 1 u - 60 + 1 u + 40 + 1 u
= 1 u + 1 u + 1 u - 60 + 40
= 3 u - 20
