Fill in the blanks in units (Eg 3 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u + 2).
Bryan and Adam have some stickers.
58 of the stickers that Bryan has is 5 more than
1011 of what Adam has.
Let
1011 of Adam's stickers be 10 u.
- 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 = ___________
(a)
Change fraction into units.
1011 of Adam's stickers → 10 u
111 of Adam's stickers → 1 u
1111 of Adam's stickers → 11 u
Number of Adam's stickers = 11 u
(b)
58 of Bryan's stickers → 10 u + 5
18 of Bryan's stickers → (10 u + 5) ÷ 5 = 2 u + 1
88 of Bryan's stickers → 8 x (2 u + 1) = 16 u + 8
Number of Bryan's stickers = 16 u + 8
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 11 u + 16 u + 8
= 27 u + 8
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam
= (16 u + 8) - 11 u
= 16 u - 11 u + 8
= 5 u + 8
Answer(s): (a) 11 u; (b) 16 u + 8; (c) 27 u + 8; (d) 5 u + 8
