Primary 2 Mathematics Quiz - Length

Answer Key

Section A: Measuring and Comparing Length

1. Answer: 7 cm

The pencil starts at 0 and ends at 7 on the ruler. Length = 7 cm.
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.

2. Answer: 9 cm

The ribbon starts at 0 and ends at 9 on the ruler. Length = 9 cm.
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.

3. Answer: 9 cm

Working: 15 cm − 6 cm = 9 cm
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer. Accept correct working shown.

4. Answer: 20 cm

Working: 12 cm + 8 cm = 20 cm
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.

5. Answer: 3 cm, 8 cm, 15 cm, 20 cm

Arrange from smallest to largest: 3 < 8 < 15 < 20.
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark only if all four are in the correct order.

6. Answer: A (1 m) and C (100 cm) are both correct — accept A or C

1 m = 100 cm, so both A and C are the longest and equal. However, if only one answer is expected, accept A or C as both represent the same length and are longer than 90 cm and 85 cm.
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for A or C.
Common mistake: Students may choose B (90 cm) thinking it is large, but 1 m = 100 cm is longer.

7. Answer: m (metres)

A classroom door is about 2 metres tall. Using cm would be 2 cm, which is far too small.
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for "m".

8. Answer: cm (centimetres)

An eraser is a small object, about 4 cm long. Using m would be 4 metres, which is far too long.
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for "cm".

(a) Answer: 43 cm
- Working: 25 cm + 18 cm = 43 cm
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer with or without working.
(b) Answer: 7 cm
- Working: 25 cm − 18 cm = 7 cm
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.

10.

(a) Answer: pencil case
- Comparing: 14 cm < 22 cm < 30 cm. The pencil case (14 cm) is the shortest.
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for "pencil case".
(b) Answer: 8 cm
- Working: 30 cm − 22 cm = 8 cm
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.

Section B: Metres and Centimetres

11. Answer: 100 cm

1 metre = 100 centimetres.
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.

12. Answer: 300 cm

Working: 3 m × 100 = 300 cm
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.

13. Answer: 2 m

Working: 200 cm ÷ 100 = 2 m
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.

14. Answer: A (150 cm)

1 m = 100 cm. Since 150 cm > 100 cm, 150 cm is longer.
Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for A.
Common mistake: Students may think 1 m is always larger without converting to the same unit.

15.

(a) Answer: 200 cm
- Working: 2 m × 100 = 200 cm
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct conversion.
(b) Answer: 120 cm
- Working: 200 cm − 80 cm = 120 cm
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer. Accept follow-through from part (a) even if part (a) is wrong.

16.

(a) Answer: 130 cm
- Working: 1 m = 100 cm, so 100 cm + 30 cm = 130 cm
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct conversion.
(b) Answer: 35 cm
- Working: 165 cm − 130 cm = 35 cm
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer. Accept follow-through from part (a).

Section C: Word Problems on Length

17. Answer: 750 m

Working: 450 m + 300 m = 750 m
Marks: 2 — Award 2 marks for the correct answer with working. Award 1 mark for correct working but wrong final answer (arithmetical error). Award 0 marks if no working and wrong answer.

18.

(a) Answer: 35 cm
- Working: 15 cm + 20 cm = 35 cm
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer.
(b) Answer: 15 cm

- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for the correct answer. Accept follow-through from part (a).

19.

(a) Answer: Plant D (60 cm)
- Comparing all heights: 38 < 45 < 52 < 60. Plant D is the tallest.
- Marks: 1 — Award 1 mark for "Plant D".
(b) Answer: Plant A (38 cm)
- Plant A at 38 cm is the shortest.

Notes for Marking:

Follow-through marks should be awarded where a student makes an error in an earlier part but correctly applies the method in a subsequent part.
For questions requiring units (cm or m), the answer is only correct if the unit is stated or if a specific answer space implies the unit.
For comparison questions, accept equivalent forms (e.g., "Plant D" or "60 cm" where either is reasonable).
