| Scheme | Marks |
|---|---|
| 5 × 1000 (= 5000) or 350 ÷ 1000 (= 0.35) | M1 |
| “5000” ÷ 350 (= 14.2857…) or 5 ÷ “0.35” (= 14.2857…) or 14 | M1 |
| 350 × “14” or 4900 or 0.35 × “14” or “0.49” or (14.28(57…) – 14) × 350 | M1 |
| Correct answer scores full marks (unless from obvious incorrect working) Answer: 100 g or 0.1 kg | A1 |

Notes
M1: Allow their 5000 or their 0.35
M1: (corrected from the printed mark scheme: the printed line reads (14.28(57…) – 14) × 100; the remainder 0.2857… of a tin is 0.2857… × 350 = 100 g)
