Your set of whole numbers must be written in the boxes. [3]
My five positive whole numbers are
☐ ☐ ☐ ☐ ☐

| Total of five numbers < 40 | B1 | All boxes must be completed. |
| Range < 12 | B1 | All boxes must be completed. Penalise −1 once from any marks gained if a negative number or a number ≥ 20 or non-whole numbers used. |
