(a)
Total number of stickers received = 4 u
4 u = 120
1 u = 120 ÷ 4 = 30
Total number of stickers that Gabriel, Perry and Oscar received
= 120 - 30
= 90
Total number of stickers that Gabriel, Perry and Oscar received
= 1 p + 5 p
= 6 p
1 p = 90 ÷ 6 = 15
Number of stickers that Gabriel received
= 1 p
= 15
(b)
Number of more stickers that Valen received more than Perry
= 1 u - 1 p
= 30 - 15
= 15
Answer(s): (a) 15; (b) 15
