(a)
Total number of stickers received = 5 u
5 u = 120
1 u = 120 ÷ 5 = 24
Total number of stickers that Perry, Ian and Glen received
= 120 - 24
= 96
Total number of stickers that Perry, Ian and Glen received
= 1 p + 5 p
= 6 p
1 p = 96 ÷ 6 = 16
Number of stickers that Perry received
= 1 p
= 16
(b)
Number of more stickers that George received more than Ian
= 1 u - 1 p
= 24 - 16
= 8
Answer(s): (a) 16; (b) 8
