03 Answers and one-line notes
| # | Answer | One-line note |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 5.4. | 45 times 12 is 540, and two decimal places give 5.40, that is 5.4. |
| 2 | 1. | 125 times 8 is 1 000, and three decimal places give 1.000, which is 1. |
| 3 | 20. | Multiply both numbers by 100 so the sum is 500 divided by 25, which is 20. |
| 4 | 40. | Multiply both by 100 to get 360 divided by 9, which is 40. |
| 5 | 7. | Multiply both by 10 to get 84 divided by 12, which is 7. |
| 6 | 12. | Multiply both by 100 to get 144 divided by 12, which is 12. |
| 7 | 7. | Work backwards by dividing: 4.2 divided by 0.6 is 42 divided by 6, which is 7. |
| 8 | 2.5. | Multiply both by 10 to get 62.5 divided by 25, which is 2.5. |
| 9 | 0.65 L. | 2.6 divided by 4 is 0.65, so each cup holds 0.65 L, which is 650 mL. |
| 10 | 4. | Multiply both by 100 to get 24 divided by 6, which is 4; a divisor below 1 makes the answer larger. |
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.
Scale both numbers by 10 or 100 to clear the decimal divisor, then divide.Tutor Registration →
