Total number of stickers that Marion and Anna shared = 100%
If Marion gave 100 stickers to Anna, both would have the same number of stickers.
Number of stickers that each would have in the end
= 100% ÷ 2
= 50%
Number of stickers that Marion gave to Anna
= 75% - 50%
= 25%
25% → 100
1% → 100 ÷ 25 = 4
Number of stickers that Anna had
= 25%
= 25 x 4
= 100
Answer(s): 100
