(a)
Total number of stickers received = 4 u
4 u = 64
1 u = 64 ÷ 4 = 16
Total number of stickers that Neave, Xavier and Daniel received
= 64 - 16
= 48
Total number of stickers that Neave, Xavier and Daniel received
= 1 p + 5 p
= 6 p
1 p = 48 ÷ 6 = 8
Number of stickers that Neave received
= 1 p
= 8
(b)
Number of more stickers that Sam received more than Xavier
= 1 u - 1 p
= 16 - 8
= 8
Answer(s): (a) 8; (b) 8
