Foundation June 2024 Paper 2 Q7
7 2 jugs each contain 350 millilitres of milk.
5 bottles each contain \(y\) millilitres of milk.
Peter tips all the milk from the 2 jugs and the 5 bottles into a container.
The total amount of milk that Peter tips into the container is 2.8 litres.
Work out the value of \(y\)
(4)
| Scheme | Marks |
|---|---|
| 350 m\(l\) written as 0.35 (\(l\)) or 700 m\(l\) written as 0.7 (\(l\)) or 2.8 \(l\) written as 2800 (m\(l\)) | B1 |
| 2.8 – 2 × “0.35” (=2.1) or “2800” – 2 × 350 (=2100) or 2 × 350 + 5\(y\) = 2800 oe or 2 × 0.35 + 5\(y\) = 2.8 oe | M1 |
| \(\dfrac{\text{``}{2800}\text{''} - \text{``}{700}\text{''}}{5}\) or \(\dfrac{2.8 - \text{``}{0.7}\text{''}}{5}\) or \(\dfrac{\text{``}{2.1}\text{''}}{5}\) or \(\dfrac{\text{``}{2100}\text{''}}{5}\) | M1 |
| Correct answer scores full marks (unless from obvious incorrect working) Answer: 420 | A1 |

Notes
B1: correct conversion (could be implied by further working)
M1: Also award for
\(\dfrac{2.8 - \text{``}{0.35}\text{''}}{5}\) or \(\dfrac{2800 - \text{``}{350}\text{''}}{5}\)
M1: or for an answer of 0.42(0)
