| Answer | Mark | Mark scheme |
|---|---|---|
| Yes (supported) | P1 | for an initial process, eg \(6 \times 2\ (=12)\) or \(80 \div 2\ (=40 = 0.40)\) oe or \(6 \times 0.8\ (= 4.80)\) oe or \(6 \div 2\ (= 3)\) |
| P1 | for a process using the special offer eg \(6 \times \text{``}40\text{''}\ (= 240 \text{ or } 2.40)\) oe or \(\text{``}4.80\text{''} \div 2\ (= 2.40)\) oe or \(2 + \text{``}0.40\text{''}\ (= 2.40)\) oe or \(\text{``}3\text{''} \times 0.8\ (= 2.40)\) | |
| P1 | for a complete process to find figures to compare, eg \(6 \times 2 + 6 \times \text{``}0.40\text{''}\ (= 14.40)\) oe or \(15 - \text{``}12\text{''} - \text{``}2.40\text{''}\ (= 0.60 \text{ or } 60\text{p})\) | |
| C1 | for Yes with correct comparable figures, eg Yes and (£)14.4(0) or Yes and (£)0.6(0) or 60p change |
