Lizzy: Bert bought some unique stamps for his collection. Before the purchase, he had only half the stamps he bought. If he bought 300 stamps, how many stamps does Bert have in total after the purchase?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:
Before the purchase, Bert had 300 * 1 / 2 = 150 stamps. So after the purchase he has 300 + 150 = 450 stamps. Final answer: 450.
