Fill in the blanks in units (Eg 3 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u + 2).
Adam and Bryan have some stickers.
310 of the stickers that Adam has is 6 more than
35 of what Bryan has.
Let
35 of Bryan's stickers be 3 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)
Change fraction into units.
35 of Bryan's stickers → 3 u
15 of Bryan's stickers → 1 u
55 of Bryan's stickers → 5 u
Number of Bryan's stickers = 5 u
(b)
310 of Adam's stickers → 3 u + 6
110 of Adam's stickers → (3 u + 6) ÷ 3 = 1 u + 2
1010 of Adam's stickers → 10 x (1 u + 2) = 10 u + 20
Number of Adam's stickers = 10 u + 20
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 5 u + 10 u + 20
= 15 u + 20
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan
= (10 u + 20) - 5 u
= 10 u - 5 u + 20
= 5 u + 20
Answer(s): (a) 5 u; (b) 10 u + 20; (c) 15 u + 20; (d) 5 u + 20
