eg \(\dfrac{1}{2} \times (20 + 26) \times 12\) (= 276) or \(12 \times 20 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times (26 - 20) \times 12\) (= 276) or \(12 \times 26 - \dfrac{1}{2} \times (26 - 20) \times 12\) (= 276) | M2 |
| “276” ÷ 20 (= 13.8) | M1 |
| eg 3 × $40 + 2 × $13 (= $146) or 14 × $13 (= $182) or 4 × $40 (= $160) | M1 |
| 146 | A1 |

Notes
M1: (indep) method to find the number of tins for their area ft any value from a calculation that includes at least two of 20, 26 & 12
M1: method to calculate a cost for their number of tins dep on previous M1 (NB: use \(n\) × $40 where \(n\) is the next multiple of 4 greater than the number of tins needed, divided by 4)
A1: cao dep on accurate figures
