To thank her five volunteers, Mai gave each of them the same number of stickers. Then she gave them each two more stickers. Altogether, she gave them a total of 30 stickers.

Answer 1

If Mai gave each volunteer the same number of stickers initially, then the total number of stickers she gave out without the additional two stickers would be 30 - (5 * 2) = 30 - 10 = 20 stickers.

Thus, each volunteer initially received 20 / 5 = 4 stickers.

Therefore, Mai gave each volunteer 4 initial stickers and then an additional 2 stickers, totaling 6 stickers each.
