| 40 100 | 3 | M1 for method to find unit weight eg \(60 \div 3\) (= 20) M1 for complete method to find weight of one of the other ingredients eg \(\text{``}20\text{''} \times 2\) (= 40) or \(\text{``}20\text{''} \times 5\) (= 100) A1 cao |

|---|---|---|
| 1.44 | 3 | M1 for a complete method to work out the weight of nuts needed eg \(300 \div (3 + 2 + 5) \times 3\) (= 90) or \(300 \div (60 + \text{``}40\text{''} + \text{``}100\text{''}) \times 60\) (= 90) M1 for a complete method to work out the cost eg \((800 \div 500) \times \text{``}90\text{''}\) (= 144) A1 cao |
