Total number of stickers that Olivia and Diana have
= 52 u + 40 u
= 92 u
After Olivia gives to Diana, both of them will have the same number of stickers.
The total number of stickers that Olivia and Diana have remains unchanged.
Number of stickers that each of them will have
= 92 u ÷ 2
= 46 u
Number of stickers that Olivia gives to Diana
= 52 u - 46 u
= 6 u
6 u = 48
1 u = 48 ÷ 6 = 8
Total number of stickers that three of them have
= 92 u + 13 u
= 105 u
Average number of stickers that each of them have
= 105 u ÷ 3
= 35 u
= 35 x 8
= 280
Answer(s): 280
