03 Answers and one-line notes

# Answer One-line note
1 3000 millilitres One litre is 1000 millilitres, so 3 times 1000 = 3000 millilitres.
2 2 litres 500 millilitres 2500 divided by 1000 = 2 remainder 500, that is 2 litres 500 millilitres.
3 2000 grams One kilogram is 1000 grams, so 2 times 1000 = 2000 grams.
4 1 kilogram 500 grams 1500 divided by 1000 = 1 remainder 500, that is 1 kilogram 500 grams.
5 1000 millilitres, that is 1 litre 750 + 250 = 1000 millilitres, which is exactly 1 litre.
6 2500 millilitres 4 litres is 4000 millilitres, so 4000 minus 1500 = 2500 millilitres.
7 3000 millilitres, that is 3 litres 6 times 500 = 3000 millilitres, and 1000 millilitres is 1 litre, that is 3 litres.
8 2200 grams 3 kilograms is 3000 grams, so 3000 minus 800 = 2200 grams.
9 3000 millilitres, that is 3 litres 1 litre 500 millilitres is 1500 millilitres, so 2 times 1500 = 3000 millilitres, that is 3 litres.
10 2000 millilitres One litre is 1000 millilitres, so 2 litres is 2000 millilitres, not 200.

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.
