Foundation June 2018 Paper 1 Q5
5 Work out 20% of 14 000 [2 marks]
| Answer | Mark | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| \(14\,000 \times 0.2\) or \(14\,000 \div 10 \times 2\) or (10% \(=\)) 1400 or (1% \(=\)) 140 | M1 | oe eg \(14\,000 \div 5\) \(\dfrac{20}{100} \times 14\,000\) |
| 2800 | A1 | oe eg 2800.00 |
Additional guidance
| 2800 followed by \(14\,000 - 2800\) (implied by 11 200) | M1A0 |
| \(14\,000 \div 10 = 4000\) followed by \(4000 \times 2 = 6000\) (fully correct method) | M1A0 |
| \(14\,000 \div 10 = 4000\) followed by 20% \(= 8000\) (method not shown for 20% but it is correct for \(2 \times\) their 10%) | M1A0 |
| \(14\,000 \div 10 = 4000\) followed by 20% \(= 6000\) (method not shown for 20%) | M0A0 |
| 10% \(= 140\), \(140 \times 2 = 280\) (method not shown for 10%) | M0A0 |
| \(14 \div 5\) or 2.8 (without place value adjustment) | M0A0 |
