Answer 1

Ramona has two full sticker books. The first book has 240 stickers divided equally on 24 pages. The second book has 168 stickers, with 4 more stickers on each page than the first book. How many pages do the two sticker books have aaltogethe?

Answer 2

Given,

The no. of stickers in the first book is 240

The no. of pages in the first book is 24

The no. of stickers in the second book is 168

To Find,

To calculate the total no. of pages in two books.

Solution,

We can solve this mathematical problem by using the following process.

The no. of stickers per page in the first book  $=\frac{240}{24} =10$

The no. of stickers per page in the second book is four more than in the first$=10+4=14$

So,

The no. of pages in the second book will be, $=\frac{168}{14} =12$

Then,

The total no. of pages in both books $= 24+12=36$

Hence, the total no. of pages in both books = 36
