. Caroline had 400 stamps in her collection. 1 10 th of them were Indian stamps, Onethird of the remaining stamps were from Europe and 100 stamps were from Africa. The rest were from the United States of America. How many American stamps were there?

Answer 1

So 400 stamps

African---> 100

Indian------> 1/10 x 400

= 40

European---> 400-40=360

1/3 x 360

= 120

so 120+40+100= 260

400-260

= 140 stams from US
