03 Answers and one-line notes

# Answer One-line note
1 1.6. Do 2.5 times 0.4 to get 1 first, then 1.6 times 1 is 1.6.
2 36. Work from the left: 12.6 divided by 0.7 is 18, and 18 divided by 0.5 is 36.
3 $206.4. 86 times 2.4 is 206.4, so the cost is 206.4 dollars.
4 8 pieces. 3.2 divided by 0.4 is 32 divided by 4, which is 8.
5 20. 8 times 250 is 2 000, and two decimal places give 20.00, which is 20.
6 50. Multiply both by 100 to get 750 divided by 15, which is 50.
7 6 bottles. 4.5 divided by 0.75 is 450 divided by 75, which is 6.
8 6.25. 0.625 times 1 000 is 625, and 625 divided by 100 is 6.25.
9 20.4 kg. 0.85 times 24 is 20.4, so the total mass is 20.4 kg.
10 40. Multiply both by 100 to get 120 divided by 3, which is 40; a divisor under 1 must give a larger answer.

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.

Pair numbers that make a whole first, then finish from the left.Tutor Registration →
