Give your answer in pounds. (4)
| Answer | Mark | Mark scheme |
|---|---|---|
| 49.01 | P1 | for process to work with the number of miles, eg \(12845 - 12468\ (= 377)\) or \(12845 \times 13\ (= 166985)\) or \(12468 \times 13\ (= 162084)\) |
| P1 | for process to find the cost, eg \(\text{``}377\text{''} \times 13\ (= 4901)\) or \(\text{``}166985\text{''} - \text{``}162084\text{''}\ (= 4901)\) | |
| B1 | (indep) for converting from pence to pounds, eg \(\text{``}4901\text{''} \div 100\) or \(13 \div 100\) or miles divided by 100 eg \(\text{``}377\text{''} \div 100\ (= 3.77)\) or \(12845 \div 100\ (= 128.45)\) and \(12468 \div 100\ (= 124.68)\) | |
| A1 | 49 or 49.01 |
Additional guidance
The B1 mark can be awarded at any stage in the process
