| Conclusion (supported) | 5 | M1 for finding the area of one rectangle which is not \(6 \times 10\) eg \(2 \times 2.5\) (= 5) or \(4 \times 10\) (= 40) or \(2.5 \times 6\) or \(5 \times 2\) M1 for a complete method to find the total area eg \(5 + 5 + 40\) or \(60 - 10\) (= 50) M1 for a complete method to find the number of tins needed eg \(\text{``}50\text{''} \div 5 \div 2.5\) (= 4) OR for a complete method to find the number of litres needed eg \(\text{``}50\text{''} \div 5\) (= 10) OR for a complete method to find the area covered by 3 tins eg \(3 \times 2.5 \times 5\) (= 37.5) A1 for 50 (m2) and (4 tins needed) or for 10 (litres) and 7.5 (litres) or for 50 (m2) and 37.5 (m2) C1 (dep M2) for a conclusion supported by their calculations |
