| P1 | for process to express both relationships, eg \(\dfrac{2}{6}\) oe and \(\dfrac{3}{8}\) oe or 2 : 4 oe and 3 : 5 oe or 2 : 6 oe and 3: 8 oe | |
| C1 | for indicating (number greater than 5 on) spinner supported by correct values, eg \(\dfrac{8}{24}\) and \(\dfrac{9}{24}\) or 0.33(3..) and 0.37(5) or 33(.3..)% and 37(.5)% or 10 : 20 and 12 : 20 or 16 : 48 and 18 : 48 |
