| \(1.18 \div 4 = 0.295\) \((118 \div 4 = 29.5)\) \(1.74 \div 6 = 0.29\) \((174 \div 6 = 29)\) \(1.18 \div 2 = 0.59\) \(1.74 \div 3 = 0.58\) \(1.74 \times 4 = 6.96\) \(1.18 \times 6 = 7.08\) \(1.74 \times 2 = 3.48\) \(1.18 \times 3 = 3.54\) \(1.18 \div 2 \times 3 = 1.77\) \(1.74 \div 3 \times 2 = 1.16\) \(4 \div 1.18 = 3.3(\ldots)\) \(6 \div 1.74 = 3.4(\ldots)\) | 6 pints | 3 | M1 for division of price by quantity for both bottles or division of quantity by price for both bottles or complete method to find price of same quantity of milk A1 for two correct values that could be used for a comparison C1 ft (dep on M1) for comparison of their values with a correct conclusion. |
