PSLE At first, Wendy had an equal number of red and blue stickers . She gave away
34 of her red stickers and some blue stickers. In the end, she was left with
14 of her stickers. What fraction of the blue stickers was Wendy left with?
|
Red |
Blue |
Total |
Comparing red stickers and blue stickers at first |
1x4x1 = 4 u |
1x4x1 = 4 u |
2x4x1 = 8 u |
Before |
4x1 = 4 u |
4 u |
4x2 = 8 u |
Change |
- 3x1 = - 3 u |
- 3 u |
- 1x2 = - 6 u |
After |
1x1 = 1 u |
1 u |
3x2 = 2 u |
The number of red stickers at first is repeated. Make the number of red stickers the first the same. LCM of 4 and 1 is 4.
The total number of stickers at first is repeated. Make the total number of stickers at first the same. LCM of 8 and 4 is 8.
Number of blue stickers that Wendy was left with
= 2 u - 1 u
= 1 u
Fraction of the blue stickers that Wendy was left with =
14 Answer(s):
14
