03 Answers and one-line notes

# Answer One-line note
1 80 marks Add 30 and 50 to get 80.
2 68 minutes Subtract 12 from 80 to get 68.
3 30 marks Five times six is thirty.
4 One in four, that is 25 per cent Only one of four options is right, so it is one in four.
5 32 marks, that is 40 per cent Sixteen times two is 32, and 32 out of 80 is 40 per cent.
6 2 marks a minute Forty divided by twenty is two.
7 140 words a minute Eight hundred and forty divided by six is 140.
8 1.5 minutes Thirty-three divided by twenty-two is 1.5.
9 75 out of 80, that is 93.75 per cent Twenty-eight plus 47 is 75, and 75 over 80 is 93.75 per cent.
10 75 per cent Forty-five out of sixty is 0.75, that is 75 per cent, not 45.

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.
