Section A: Multiple Choice Questions (2 marks each)

1. B) 3,500 m

3.5 km × 1,000 = 3,500 m

2. C) 165 minutes

2 × 60 + 45 = 120 + 45 = 165 minutes

3. B) 4.5 ℓ

4,500 ml ÷ 1,000 = 4.5 ℓ

4. B) 410 m

Perimeter = 2 × (120 + 85) = 2 × 205 = 410 m

5. B) 225 cm²

Area = 15 × 15 = 225 cm²

---

Section B: Short Answer Questions (3 marks each)

6. 2,750 g

2.75 kg × 1,000 = 2,750 g

7. 4:40 p.m.

2:45 p.m. + 1 h 55 min = 4:40 p.m.

8. 84 cm

Perimeter = 2 × (24 + 18) = 2 × 42 = 84 cm

9. 6,750 ml

6 ℓ 750 ml = 6,000 ml + 750 ml = 6,750 ml

10. 6 km 230 m

3 km 450 m + 2 km 780 m = 5 km 1,230 m = 6 km 230 m

---

Section C: Problem Solving (4 marks each)

11.

• (a) 150 m
• (b) 1,350 m²

(a) Perimeter = 2 × (45 + 30) = 150 m (b) Area = 45 × 30 = 1,350 m²

12. 45 minutes

8:20 a.m. - 7:35 a.m. = 45 minutes

13. 7 days (with 500 ml remaining)

25 ℓ = 25,000 ml 25,000 ÷ 3,500 = 7 remainder 500 7 complete days

14. 80 cm

4 m 80 cm = 480 cm 480 ÷ 6 = 80 cm

15. 400 g

Mass of books = 5.25 kg - 0.45 kg = 4.8 kg = 4,800 g Each book = 4,800 ÷ 12 = 400 g

---

Section D: Challenging Problems (5 marks each)

16. 3 hours 10 minutes

Total time: 09:45 to 13:20 = 3 hours 35 minutes Moving time: 3 h 35 min - 25 min = 3 hours 10 minutes

17. 300 tiles

Room area = 8 m × 6 m = 48 m² = 480,000 cm² Tile area = 40 cm × 40 cm = 1,600 cm² Number of tiles = 480,000 ÷ 1,600 = 300 tiles Alternative method: 800 cm ÷ 40 cm = 20 tiles (length) 600 cm ÷ 40 cm = 15 tiles (width) Total = 20 × 15 = 300 tiles
