    • Look at millions place: 8,376,429 → 8,000,000
  3. A) 23

    • BODMAS: 24 ÷ 4 × 3 + 5 = 6 × 3 + 5 = 18 + 5 = 23
  4. B) 0.625

    • 5 ÷ 8 = 0.625
  5. A) 1 7/12

    • 3 1/4 - 1 2/3 = 3 3/12 - 1 8/12 = 2 15/12 - 1 8/12 = 1 7/12
  6. C) 16

    • Boys:Girls = 3:4, if 12 boys = 3 parts, then 1 part = 4
    • Girls = 4 parts = 4 × 4 = 16

  9. C) 60°

    • Third angle = 180° - 65° - 55° = 60°
  10. C) 135 cm²

    • Area = length × width = 15 × 9 = 135 cm²

Section B: Short Answer (30 marks)

  1. 6,000,000 + 700,000 + 50,000 + 200 + 80 + 4 [3 marks]
