Answer:
Let the common ratio be x
No of collections Sheila have = 6x and 23+5x
No of collections Amina have = 5x
by the given condition:
5x + 23 = 6x
23 = 6x - 5x
23 = x
so the number of stamps;
Sheila have = 138 stamps
Amina have = 115 stamps
so the total number of stamps Amar distributed are 253 stamps
hope this helps!
