| Answer | Marks | Part marks and guidance | |
|---|---|---|---|
| C | 1 | If nothing on answer line look for clear indication in list Allow \(\frac{3}{4} \times 14\) on answer line | |
| Answer | Marks | Part marks and guidance | |
|---|---|---|---|
| [£]3.5[0] | 2 | M1 for \(\frac{1}{4} \times 14\) oe | e.g. \(0.25 \times 14\) or \(14 \div 2 \div 2\) or \(4 \times 3.5 = 14\) etc but not \(\frac{1}{4}\) of 14 M1 for \(14 - \frac{3}{4} \times 14\) May be seen as \(14 - 10.5\) |
