| Alternative method 1 – pieces of homework | ||
| \(5 \times 4\) or 20 or \(3.5 \times 4\) or 14 | M1 | oe check diagram |
| \(5 \times 4 + 3.5 \times 4 + 5\) or their 20 + their 14 + 5 or 39 | M1dep | oe |
| 19 hours 30 minutes | A1 | |
| Alternative method 2 – time taken | ||
| Correct method to find the time taken (in minutes or hours) for one subject | M1 | check diagram eg (in minutes) \(5 \times 4 \times 30\) or 600 (M) \(3.5 \times 4 \times 30\) or 420 (E) \(1.25 \times 4 \times 30\) or 150 (G) eg (in hours) \(5 \times 2\) or 10 (M) \(3.5 \times 2\) or 7 (E) \(1.25 \times 2\) or 2.5 (G) |
| Correct method to find the time taken (consistently in minutes or hours) for all three subjects or 1170 (min) or 19.5 (h) | M1dep | |
| 19 hours 30 minutes | A1 | |
| Alternative method 3 – number of symbols | ||
| \(5 + 3.5 + 1.25\) or 9.75 | M1 | oe |
| their \(9.75 \times 4\) or 39 | M1dep | oe |
| 19 hours 30 minutes | A1 | |
