(a)
Total number of stickers received = 4 u
4 u = 40
1 u = 40 ÷ 4 = 10
Total number of stickers that Julian, Japheth and Caden received
= 40 - 10
= 30
Total number of stickers that Julian, Japheth and Caden received
= 1 p + 5 p
= 6 p
1 p = 30 ÷ 6 = 5
Number of stickers that Julian received
= 1 p
= 5
(b)
Number of more stickers that Liam received more than Japheth
= 1 u - 1 p
= 10 - 5
= 5
Answer(s): (a) 5; (b) 5
