B2	Award B2 for one of the following: all correct % ( \(\dfrac{40}{100}\) or \(\dfrac{30}{100}\) must be shown as 40% or 30%) all correct fractions with a common denominator (could include decimals as numerators and denominators) all correct decimals correct work using a common amount a valid combination that allows full comparison (e.g. 2/5 = 0·4 and 0·3 = 30%). Award B1 for one of the following: one correct conversion (percentage or decimal) two correct fractions with a common denominator two correct calculations for a common amount.
9% 0·3 \(\dfrac{2}{5}\) in order	B1	Allow any unambiguous indication (e.g. ‘converted’ values.) Correct answer with no incorrect conversions seen gains the final B1. If incorrect conversions seen, then strict FT of ‘their work’ only if B1 gained. Correct answer, with no other marks awarded, gains final B1 only.
