Alex has 373 stamps. Hogan has 150 stamps more than Alex. How many stamps do they both have altogether?

Step-by-step:

- Alex has 373 stamps.
- Hogan has 150 more than Alex → Hogan = 373 + 150 = 523 stamps

Step-by-step:

Total = 730 + 456 + 238

Problem 4:

Mrs. Willy bought 65 roses to share with her 5 friends. How many roses will each of them get?

Step-by-step:

- Total roses: 65
- Number of people sharing: Mrs. Willy + 5 friends = 6 people
- Roses per person: 65 ÷ 6 = ?

Now divide:
- 6 × 10 = 60 → remainder 5
- So, each person gets 10 roses, and there are 5 left over

But if we assume she is sharing with her 5 friends, meaning only the 5 friends get roses, then:

- 65 ÷ 5 = 13 roses each

Since the wording says “share with her 5 friends,” it implies the 5 friends are receiving the roses, not including herself.

✔ Answer: 13 roses each
