1 Work out.
\(1\dfrac{5}{6} - \dfrac{2}{3} \div \dfrac{3}{4}\) [4]
| Answer | Marks | Part marks and guidance | |
|---|---|---|---|
| \(\frac{17}{18}\) oe | 4 | B2 for [–]\(\frac{8}{9}\) oe or M1 for [–] \(\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{4}{3}\) oe or [–]\(\frac{8}{12} \div \frac{9}{12}\) oe | Allow pairs of equivalent fractions for the product or division for M1 |
| M1 for \(\frac{33}{18} - \frac{16}{18}\) oe FT their \(\frac{8}{9}\) or [1]\(\frac{15}{18} - \frac{16}{18}\) oe FT their \(\frac{8}{9}\) | Allow pairs of equivalent fractions both over a common denominator for M1 | ||
| If 0 or 1 scored, award instead SC2 for answer \(\frac{14}{9}\) oe If 0 scored, SC1 for \(\frac{7}{6}\) oe in working | From correct processing but wrong order | ||
