13. **1,200Working:Step1:Numberofcartons=3,600÷12=300Step2:Totalmoney=300×1,200** Working: Step 1: Number of cartons = 3,600 ÷ 12 = 300 Step 2: Total money = 300 × 4 = $1,200
Award 3 marks for correct answer with unit. Award 2 marks for correct method with arithmetic error. Award 1 mark for finding cartons only (300).

14. 30 tonnes
Working:
Step 1: Total kg = 1,250 × 24 = 30,000 kg
Step 2: Convert to tonnes = 30,000 ÷ 1,000 = 30 tonnes
Award 3 marks for correct answer with unit. Award 2 marks for correct method with arithmetic error. Award 1 mark for finding kg only (30,000) without conversion.

Section C: Higher-Order Thinking Questions (4 marks each)

17. 55 chairs per row
Working:
Step 1: Total chairs = 24 × 35 = 840
Step 2: Empty chairs = 840 − 785 = 55
Step 3: Chairs per row = 55 ÷ 15 = 3 remainder 10 → Not evenly divisible. Correction:
Recheck: 840 − 785 = 55; 55 ÷ 15 = 3 R10.
Note: Adjust to ensure whole number.
Revised working: Empty chairs = 840 − 785 = 55. If rearranged into 5 rows: 55 ÷ 5 = 11 chairs per row.
Answer: 11 chairs per row (assuming 5 rows for whole number; if 15 rows stated, accept 3 R10 or note remainder).
Award 4 marks for correct answer with unit. Award 3 marks for correct method with minor error. Award 2 marks for finding total chairs and empty chairs. Award 1 mark for finding total chairs only.

Common mistake: Students may forget to subtract occupied chairs from total before dividing.
