[quote]2)Mrs Raja gave 17 boys and girls a total of 105 clips. Each boy was given 5 clips and each girl was given 7 clips.If all the girls were to give all their clips to the boys, how many more clips would each boy get?

Hi
Hope this helps.

You may use a heuristics known as Making a Supposition or Assuming Method.

Suppose all the 17 pupils are girls.

17*7 = 119
119 – 105 = 14 (fewer clips)

Each boy has 2 fewer clips.
Number of boys = 14/2 = 7

Number of girls = 10
Number of clips held by girls = 7*10 = 70

Hence each boy will get 70/7 = 10 clips (more)
