| Scheme | Marks | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| (Cost of 1 apple 78 ÷ 3 =) 26(p) | B1 | Accept 0.26p only if used correctly in further working |
| (Cost of 1 pear =) (1(.)22 – 26) ÷ 3 | M1 | Allow intention to divide by 3 FT 'their 26' provided evidence of 78 ÷ 3 Algebraic notation is not required Allow inconsistent place value for M1 only, unless corrected later, i.e. 3 pears + 26 = 1.22 or 3 pears = 1.22 – 26 |
| (=) 32(p) | A1 | |
| (Cost of 5 pears + 2 apples =) 5 × (0.)32 + 2 × (0.)26 or 1(.)60 + (0.)52) | M1 | FT 5 × ‘their (0.)32’ + 2 × 'their (0.)26' Allow inconsistent place value for M1 only, unless corrected later |
| (=) (£)2.12 or 212(p) | A1 | If units are given they must be correct |
| (Change £5 – 2.12 =) (£)2.88 | B1 | FT provided at least 3 previous marks are awarded Do not penalise incorrect units if already penalised, otherwise penalise incorrect units -1 |
