Fill in the blanks in units (Eg 3 u) or unit equations (Eg 1 u + 2).
Bryan and Adam have some stickers.
38 of the stickers that Bryan has is 6 more than
911 of what Adam has.
Let
911 of Adam's stickers be 9 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.
911 of Adam's stickers → 9 u
111 of Adam's stickers → 1 u
1111 of Adam's stickers → 11 u
Number of Adam's stickers = 11 u
(b)
38 of Bryan's stickers → 9 u + 6
18 of Bryan's stickers → (9 u + 6) ÷ 3 = 3 u + 2
88 of Bryan's stickers → 8 x (3 u + 2) = 24 u + 16
Number of Bryan's stickers = 24 u + 16
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 11 u + 24 u + 16
= 35 u + 16
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam
= (24 u + 16) - 11 u
= 24 u - 11 u + 16
= 13 u + 16
Answer(s): (a) 11 u; (b) 24 u + 16; (c) 35 u + 16; (d) 13 u + 16
