Fill in the blanks in units (Eg 3 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u + 2).
Bryan and Adam have some stickers.
411 of the stickers that Bryan has is 8 more than
47 of what Adam has.
Let
47 of Adam's stickers be 4 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.
47 of Adam's stickers → 4 u
17 of Adam's stickers → 1 u
77 of Adam's stickers → 7 u
Number of Adam's stickers = 7 u
(b)
411 of Bryan's stickers → 4 u + 8
111 of Bryan's stickers → (4 u + 8) ÷ 4 = 1 u + 2
1111 of Bryan's stickers → 11 x (1 u + 2) = 11 u + 22
Number of Bryan's stickers = 11 u + 22
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 7 u + 11 u + 22
= 18 u + 22
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam
= (11 u + 22) - 7 u
= 11 u - 7 u + 22
= 4 u + 22
Answer(s): (a) 7 u; (b) 11 u + 22; (c) 18 u + 22; (d) 4 u + 22
