03 Answers and one-line notes
| # | Answer | One-line note |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 30 days | November is a 30-day month. |
| 2 | 1 September | August has 31 days, so the next day is 1 September. |
| 3 | 14 days | One week has 7 days, so 2 times 7. |
| 4 | Saturday | Find the 14th on the February calendar and read its column. |
| 5 | 31 May | Eight days remain in February and March to May give 92 days, so the 100th day is 31 May. |
| 6 | Sunday | The gap is 30 days; 30 divided by 7 leaves 2, so move two weekdays on. |
| 7 | 184 days | Add July to December; July and August each have 31 days. |
| 8 | 8 years old | 2026 minus 2018 gives 8, and the month and day match exactly. |
| 9 | 52 weeks and 1 day | 365 divided by 7 gives 52 with remainder 1. |
| 10 | September has only 30 days, so there is no 31st. | September, April, June and November all end on the 30th, so check the month length first. |
04 What to do after marking
- After marking, redo only the wrong items and write down which step went wrong (formula, unit, or misread number).
- Repeat the same item two days later; move to the next paper only when both attempts are correct.
- Parents only need the answer and note columns; there is no need to explain every item.
