710 to Albert and Tom, Clayton had 352 less stickers than Albert. The number of stickers that Tom had increased by 90%. How many stickers did Albert and Clayton have in the end?
|
Albert |
Tom |
Clayton |
Before |
11 u |
6 u |
8 u |
Change |
+ 0.2 u |
+ 5.4 u |
- 5.6 u |
After |
11.2 u |
11.4 u |
2.4 u |
Number of stickers that Clayton gave to Albert and Tom
=
710 x 8 u
= 5.6 u
Number of stickers that Tom received from Clayton
=
90100 x 6 u
= 5.4 u
Number of stickers that Albert received from Clayton
= 5.6 u - 5.4 u
= 0.2 u
Number of less stickers that Clayton had less than Albert
= 11.2 u - 2.4 u
= 8.8 u
8.8 u = 352
1 u = 352 ÷ 8.8 = 40
Number of stickers that Albert and Clayton had
= 11.2 u + 2.4 u
= 13.6 u
= 13.6 x 40
= 544
Answer(s): 544
