| 6 | M1 | for interpreting the table to find the number of green counters \((26 + 7\ (= 33))\) or the number of red counters \((16 + 11\ (= 27))\) or the difference in circles \((26 - 16\ (=10))\) or squares \((11 - 7\ (=4))\) |
| A1 | cao |
Additional guidance
For the M1: \(33 - 27 = 6\)
\(10 - 4 = 6\)
