Adam has 12 less than
118 of the stickers.
- 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 = ___________

Change fraction into units.
Total number of stickers = 18 u
Number of stickers that Adam has = 1 u - 12
(b)
1 -
118 =
1718 Number of stickers that Bryan has = 17 u + 12
(c)
Total number of stickers = 18 u
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam
= (17 u + 12) - (1 u - 12)
= 17 u + 12 - 1 u + 12
= 17 u - 1 u + 12 + 12
= 16 u + 24
Answer(s): (a) 1 u - 12; (b) 17 u + 12; (c) 18 u; (d) 16 u + 24
