(a)
Total number of stickers received = 5 u
5 u = 105
1 u = 105 ÷ 5 = 21
Total number of stickers that Lee, Gabriel and Ivan received
= 105 - 21
= 84
Total number of stickers that Lee, Gabriel and Ivan received
= 1 p + 5 p
= 6 p
1 p = 84 ÷ 6 = 14
Number of stickers that Lee received
= 1 p
= 14
(b)
Number of more stickers that Sam received more than Gabriel
= 1 u - 1 p
= 21 - 14
= 7
Answer(s): (a) 14; (b) 7
