Is the answer 168? -
Are there any websites – other than this forum of course – where maths questions are posted up and explanations provided on how to solve them?

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.

tks all of u.
