Section A: Multiple Choice Questions (5 × 2 marks = 10 marks)

Answer: B) 60 km/h
- Working: Speed = Distance ÷ Time = 180 km ÷ 3 h = 60 km/h.
- Explanation: Rate is a measure of how much of one quantity there is per unit of another quantity. Here, speed is the rate of distance travelled per unit of time. To find the speed, we divide the total distance by the total time.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: B) 30 pages
- Working: Rate = 240 pages ÷ 8 minutes = 30 pages per minute.
- Explanation: The rate of printing is the number of pages printed per minute. We find this by dividing the total pages by the total minutes.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: B) 6 minutes
- Working: Rate = 5 plants ÷ 2 minutes = 2.5 plants per minute. Time = 15 plants ÷ 2.5 plants per minute = 6 minutes.
- Explanation: First, find the rate of watering (plants per minute). Then, divide the number of plants to be watered by this rate to find the time needed.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: B) 60 toys per hour
- Working: Rate = 360 toys ÷ 6 hours = 60 toys per hour.

- Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.

Section B: Short Answer Questions (10 × 3 marks = 30 marks)

Answer: 84 cupcakes
- Working: Rate = 48 cupcakes ÷ 4 hours = 12 cupcakes per hour. In 7 hours: 12 cupcakes/hour × 7 hours = 84 cupcakes.
- Explanation: First, find the unit rate (cupcakes per hour). Then, multiply this rate by the new number of hours.
- Marking: 1 mark for finding rate, 1 mark for correct multiplication, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: 60 km
- Working: Distance = Speed × Time = 15 km/h × 4 h = 60 km.
- Explanation: Speed is a rate. To find the total distance travelled, multiply the speed (rate) by the time.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct formula, 1 mark for correct substitution, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: 192 bottles
- Working: Rate = 120 bottles ÷ 5 minutes = 24 bottles per minute. In 8 minutes: 24 bottles/minute × 8 minutes = 192 bottles.
- Explanation: Find the unit rate (bottles per minute), then multiply by the new time.
- Marking: 1 mark for finding rate, 1 mark for correct multiplication, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: 150 kg
- Working: Rate = 60 kg ÷ 4 trees = 15 kg per tree. From 10 trees: 15 kg/tree × 10 trees = 150 kg.
- Explanation: Find the unit rate (kg per tree), then multiply by the new number of trees.
- Marking: 1 mark for finding rate, 1 mark for correct multiplication, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: 80 km/h
- Working: Speed = Distance ÷ Time = 240 km ÷ 3 h = 80 km/h.
- Explanation: Speed is the rate of distance per unit of time. Divide the total distance by the total time.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct formula, 1 mark for correct substitution, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: $9
- Working: Rate = $72 ÷ 8 hours =$ 9 per hour.
- Explanation: The hourly wage is the rate of pay per hour. Divide the total pay by the total hours worked.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer, 1 mark for correct unit ($).
Answer: 360 litres
- Working: Rate = 150 litres ÷ 5 minutes = 30 litres per minute. In 12 minutes: 30 litres/minute × 12 minutes = 360 litres.
- Explanation: Find the unit rate (litres per minute), then multiply by the new time.
- Marking: 1 mark for finding rate, 1 mark for correct multiplication, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: 75 pages
- Working: Rate = 45 pages ÷ 3 hours = 15 pages per hour. In 5 hours: 15 pages/hour × 5 hours = 75 pages.
- Explanation: Find the unit rate (pages per hour), then multiply by the new time.
- Marking: 1 mark for finding rate, 1 mark for correct multiplication, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: 20 litres
- Working: Rate = 8 litres ÷ 100 km = 0.08 litres per km. For 250 km: 0.08 litres/km × 250 km = 20 litres.
- Explanation: Find the unit rate (litres per km), then multiply by the new distance.
- Marking: 1 mark for finding rate, 1 mark for correct multiplication, 1 mark for correct answer.
Answer: 300 pens
- Working: Rate = 2400 pens ÷ 8 hours = 300 pens per hour.
- Explanation: The rate of production is the number of pens produced per hour. Divide the total pens by the total hours.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer, 1 mark for correct unit.

Section C: Problem-Solving Questions (5 × 2 marks = 10 marks)

Answer: 63 boxes
