| An answer of \(\frac{3}{5}\) with correct supporting workings e.g. \(\frac{3}{5} = \frac{12}{20}\) AND \(\frac{3}{4} = \frac{15}{20}\) OR all three fractions converted to a common form: e.g. \(\frac{3}{5} = \frac{36}{60}\), \(\frac{13}{20} = \frac{39}{60}\) AND \(\frac{3}{4} = \frac{45}{60}\) OR \(\frac{3}{5}\) = 60%, \(\frac{13}{20}\) = 65% AND \(\frac{3}{4}\) = 75% OR \(\frac{3}{5}\) = 0·6, \(\frac{13}{20}\) = 0·65 AND \(\frac{3}{4}\) = 0·75 OR all three fractions of a common value calculated e.g. \(\frac{3}{5}\) × 60 = 36, \(\frac{13}{20}\) × 60 = 39 AND \(\frac{3}{4}\) × 60 = 45 | B2 | No marks unless working seen. Accept equivalent value to 3/5 on the answer space if unambiguous. B1 for one of the following:
