Question 1

Answer: (D) 700,000

Working:

In 3,756,842, the digit 7 is in the hundred thousands place
Value = 7 × 100,000 = 700,000

Question 2

Answer: (B) 45/1000

Working:

0.045 = 45 thousandths = 45/1000
Checking: 45 ÷ 1000 = 0.045 ✓

Question 3

Answer: (B) 90

Working:

Stamps given away = 3/8 × 240
= 3 × 30
= 90 stamps

Question 4

Answer: (C) 64

Working:

Boys : Girls = 3 : 5
3 units = 24 boys
1 unit = 24 ÷ 3 = 8
Total = 3 + 5 = 8 units
Total students = 8 × 8 = 64

Question 5

Answer: (C) 168

Working:

35% of 480 = 35/100 × 480
= 0.35 × 480
= 168

Question 6

Answer: (A) 180 cm²

Working:

Perimeter = 2(length + breadth) = 56 cm
Length + Breadth = 28 cm
Breadth = 28 - 18 = 10 cm
Area = 18 × 10 = 180 cm²

Question 7

Answer: (C) 47

= 35/100
= 0.35

Section B: Short Answer Questions (30 marks)

Question 11

Answer: 4,570,000

Working:

4,567,892
Ten thousand digit is 6
Look at thousands digit: 7 ≥ 5, so round up
4,567,892 → 4,570,000

[3 marks: 1 mark for correct rounding method, 2 marks for correct answer]

Question 12

Answer: 570

Working:

4.56 × 100 ÷ 0.8
= 456 ÷ 0.8
= 4560 ÷ 8
= 570

[3 marks: 1 mark for each step, final answer]

Question 13

Answer: 13/20

Working:

2/5 + 3/4 - 1/2
Convert to common denominator (20):
= 8/20 + 15/20 - 10/20
= (8 + 15 - 10)/20
= 13/20

[3 marks: 1 mark for finding common denominator, 1 mark for correct conversion, 1 mark for final answer]

Question 14

Answer: 48 red beads

Working:

Red : Blue = 4 : 7
Total units = 4 + 7 = 11 units
11 units = 132 beads
1 unit = 132 ÷ 11 = 12 beads
Red beads = 4 × 12 = 48

[3 marks: 1 mark for finding total units, 1 mark for value of 1 unit, 1 mark for final answer]

Question 15

Answer: $68

Working:

Discount = 20% of $85
= 0.20 × $85
= $17
Sale price = $85 -$ 17 = $68

[3 marks: 1 mark for finding discount amount, 2 marks for final answer]

Question 16

Answer: 63 cm²

Working:

Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height
= 1/2 × 14 × 9
= 1/2 × 126
= 63 cm²

[3 marks: 1 mark for correct formula, 2 marks for correct calculation]

Question 17

Answer: 30

Working:

Let the three consecutive numbers be n, n+1, n+2
n + (n+1) + (n+2) = 87
3n + 3 = 87
3n = 84
n = 28
Largest number = 28 + 2 = 30

[3 marks: 1 mark for setting up equation, 1 mark for solving, 1 mark for final answer]

Question 18

Answer: 30 litres

Working:

Volume = 40 × 25 × 30 = 30,000 cm³
1 litre = 1000 cm³
Volume = 30,000 ÷ 1000 = 30 litres

[3 marks: 1 mark for calculating volume in cm³, 1 mark for conversion, 1 mark for final answer]

Question 19

Answer: x = 65°

Working:

Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°
x + 47° + 68° = 180°
x + 115° = 180°
x = 180° - 115° = 65°

[3 marks: 1 mark for knowing angle sum, 2 marks for correct calculation]

Question 20

Answer: y = 9

Working:

3y - 8 = 19
3y = 19 + 8
3y = 27
y = 27 ÷ 3
y = 9

[3 marks: 1 mark for adding 8, 1 mark for dividing, 1 mark for final answer]

Section C: Problem Solving (50 marks)

Question 21 (5 marks)

(a) Total cost of prawns and fish

Working:

Cost of prawns = 5 × $18.50 =$ 92.50
Cost of fish = 3 × $12.80 =$ 38.40
Total = $92.50 +$ 38.40 = $130.90

[3 marks: 1 mark for prawns cost, 1 mark for fish cost, 1 mark for total]

(b) Change received

Working:

Change = $150 -$ 130.90 = $19.10

[2 marks]

Question 22 (5 marks)

Answer: 300 oranges

Working:

Let total oranges at first = 1 whole
Sold in morning = 2/5
Remainder after morning = 1 - 2/5 = 3/5
Sold in afternoon = 1/3 × 3/5 = 1/5
Left at end = 3/5 - 1/5 = 2/5
2/5 of total = 120 oranges
1/5 of total = 60 oranges
Total at first = 5 × 60 = 300 oranges

[5 marks: 1 mark for remainder after morning, 1 mark for sold in afternoon, 1 mark for finding fraction left, 2 marks for final answer]

Question 23 (6 marks)

(a) Ali's money at first

Working:

Ali : Ben = 5 : 3
Difference = 5 - 3 = 2 units
After giving $24, they have equal amounts
This means 2 units = 2 × $24 =$ 48 (Ali gave away half the difference)
Wait, let's recalculate:
For them to be equal: Ali gives $24, so the gap closes by$ 48 (Ali loses $24, Ben gains$ 24)
2 units = $48
1 unit = $24
Ali's money at first = 5 × $24 = **$ 120**

[4 marks: 1 mark for finding difference in units, 1 mark for understanding equal amounts, 1 mark for value of 1 unit, 1 mark for answer]

(b) Total money

Working:

Total = 5 + 3 = 8 units
Total money = 8 × $24 = **$ 192**

[2 marks]

Question 24 (6 marks)

(a) Volume of water at first

Working:

Volume of tank = 50 × 40 × 35 = 70,000 cm³
Water at first = 2/5 × 70,000 = 28,000 cm³
= 28,000 ÷ 1000 = 28 litres

[3 marks: 1 mark for tank volume, 1 mark for fraction calculation, 1 mark for conversion to litres]

(b) Time to fill completely

Working:

Remaining volume to fill = 70,000 - 28,000 = 42,000 cm³ = 42 litres
Rate = 2 litres per minute
Time = 42 ÷ 2 = 21 minutes

[3 marks: 1 mark for remaining volume, 1 mark for rate application, 1 mark for answer]

Question 25 (6 marks)

(a) Percentage of girls

Working:

Boys = 45%
Girls = 100% - 45% = 55%

[2 marks]

(b) Total students

Working:

Difference = Girls - Boys = 55% - 45% = 10%
10% = 132 students
1% = 13.2 students
100% = 13.2 × 100 = 1320 students

[4 marks: 1 mark for finding percentage difference, 1 mark for value of 10%, 2 marks for total]

Question 26 (6 marks)

(a) Least amount for 18 notebooks

Working:

For every 5 bought, get 1 free (total 6 notebooks)
18 notebooks = 3 sets of 6
Mary needs to buy 3 × 5 = 15 notebooks
Cost = 15 × $2.40 = **$ 36.00**

[3 marks: 1 mark for understanding promotion, 1 mark for notebooks to buy, 1 mark for cost]

(b) Maximum notebooks with $33.60

Working:

Number she can buy = $33.60 ÷$ 2.40 = 14 notebooks
14 = 2 sets of 5 + 4 extra
Free notebooks = 2
Total notebooks = 14 + 2 = 16 notebooks

[3 marks: 1 mark for number she can buy, 1 mark for free notebooks, 1 mark for total]

Question 27 (8 marks)

(a) Area of rectangle ABCD

Working:

Area = length × breadth
= 24 × 16
= 384 cm²

[2 marks]

(b) Unshaded area

Working:

Area of shaded square = 6 × 6 = 36 cm²
Unshaded area = 384 - 36 = 348 cm²

[3 marks: 1 mark for square area, 2 marks for unshaded area]

(c) Fraction unshaded

Working:

Fraction = 348/384
= 348 ÷ 12 / 384 ÷ 12
= 29/32
= 29/32

[3 marks: 1 mark for setting up fraction, 2 marks for simplification]

Question 28 (8 marks)

(a) Fraction Bala received

Working:

Total ratio = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10 units
Bala = 3 units
Fraction = 3/10

[2 marks]

(b) Total stickers shared

Working:

Amir : Chen = 2 : 5
Difference = 5 - 2 = 3 units
3 units = 45 stickers
1 unit = 45 ÷ 3 = 15 stickers
Total = 10 units = 10 × 15 = 150 stickers

[3 marks: 1 mark for finding difference, 1 mark for 1 unit value, 1 mark for total]

(c) Stickers each person received

Working:

Amir = 2 × 15 = 30 stickers
Bala = 3 × 15 = 45 stickers
Chen = 5 × 15 = 75 stickers

[3 marks: 1 mark for each person]
