Emma spent ²₅ of her money on 8 foolscaps and 6 correction tapes. The cost of one correction tape was four times the cost of one foolscap. She bought some more correction tapes with ¹₆ of her remaining money. How many correction tapes did Emma buy altogether?

8 foolscaps and 6 correction tapes	Remaining amount
2x2	3x2
	More correction tapes	Left
	1x1	5x1
4 p	1 p	5 p

Cost of 1 foolscap = 1 u
Cost of 1 correction tape = 4 u

Cost of 8 foolscaps = 8 x 1 u = 8 u
Cost of 6 correction tapes = 6 x 4 u = 24 u

Total cost of 8 foolscaps and 6 correction tapes
= 8 u + 24 u
= 32 u

4 p = 32 u

1 p = 32 ÷ 4 = 8 u

Amount that Emma used to buy more correction tapes
= 1 p
= 1 x 8 u
= 8 u

Number of more correction tapes that Emma bought
= 8 u ÷ 4 u
= 2

Total number of correction tapes that Emma bought
= 6 + 2
= 8

Answer(s): 8
