Question

Lena wants to put the monkey stickers in all album. She says she will use more pages if she puts 5 stickers on a page instead of 10 stickers on a page. Is she correct

Answer 1

She is absolutely correct!

Explanation:

Let the total no. of stickers with Lena be x.

If she sticks 5 stickers per page, the number of pages she will use=
`(x)/(5)`

If she sticks 10 stickers per page, the number of pages she will use=
`(x)/(10)`

We all know, that the smaller the denominator the larger the number.

Therefore,
`(x)/(5) >(x)/(10)`

Condition being that x is a positive quantity which it automatically is.

So, Lena is right in her reasoning that she will use more no. of pages.
