(a)
Total number of stickers received = 4 u
4 u = 104
1 u = 104 ÷ 4 = 26
Total number of stickers that Seth, Albert and Asher received
= 104 - 26
= 78
Total number of stickers that Seth, Albert and Asher received
= 1 p + 5 p
= 6 p
1 p = 78 ÷ 6 = 13
Number of stickers that Seth received
= 1 p
= 13
(b)
Number of more stickers that Eric received more than Albert
= 1 u - 1 p
= 26 - 13
= 13
Answer(s): (a) 13; (b) 13
