Adam and Bryan have some stickers.
16 of the stickers that Adam has is 2 more than
12 of what Bryan has.
Let
12 of Bryan's stickers be 1 u.
- Number of stickers that Bryan has = ___________
- Number of stickers that Adam has = ___________
- Total number of stickers = ___________
- Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan = ___________
(a)
12 of Bryan's stickers → 1 u
22 of Bryan's stickers → 2 u
Number of Bryan's stickers = 2 u
(b)
16 of Adam's stickers → 1 u + 2
66 of Adam's stickers → 6 x (1 u + 2) = 6 u + 12
Number of Adam's stickers = 6 u + 12
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 2 u + 6 u + 12
= 8 u + 12
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan
= (6 u + 12) - 2 u
= 6 u - 2 u + 12
= 4 u + 12
Answer(s): (a) 2 u; (b) 6 u + 12; (c) 8 u + 12; (d) 4 u + 12
