Hi

Siti, Rahmesh and Peter had 528 stickers at first. Siti bought another 32 stickers, Ramesh gave 1/5 of his stickers away and Peter was given as many stickers as he had at first by his father. In the end, all three of them had equal number of stickers. Find the number of stickers Siti had at first.

Change 32 to 33, and you’ll get Siti ----- 171 stickers@first.

Due to time constraints, I’ll not draw the MD, just some pointers

In the end

Siti ------- 4u

Ramesh ------ 4u

Peter ------ 4u

At first

Siti ------- 4u – 33

Ramesh ------ 5u

Peter ------ 2u

11u ------ 561

1u ------ 51

You may continue from here.

Best wishes

1. 50 is the estimated quotient when a 3 digit number is divided by a 1 digit number. Think of two possible numbers that can give this quotient. The. Check if your answer is correct.

2. A 3 digit number when rounded off to the nearest ten and the nearest hundred will produc the same answer. What is the number?
