From your
1 A quadrilateral is a 4 sided shape (e.g. a square/rectangle)

which will have 360°
2 A right angle = 90°
1/3 of a right angle = 90° ÷ 3 = 30° 120°
One and a third right angles = 90° + 30° =
3 A circle has 360° so 1/5 of 360° is 360° ÷ 5 = 72°

4 A straight line consists of two right angles: 2 x 90 =
180°
Remember: the formula for the area of a triangle = base x height

2
5 Base x Height = 6cm x 9cm = 54cm2 = 27cm2
2 2 2
6 Base x Height = 12cm x 11cm = 132cm2 = 66cm2

2 2 2
A line of symmetry will cut a shape in half so that each piece is

identical as a mirror image.

Note: This is not an equilateral triangle, so it has only 1 line of

symmetry.
Note: Not all sides are equal so this star only has 1 line of
symmetry.
HCF = Highest Common Factor

10 Factors of 15 are: 1, 15, 3, 5
Factors of 45 are: 1, 45, 3, 15, 5, 9 HCF = 15
11 Factors of 12 are: 1, 12, 2, 6, 3, 4
Factors of 52 are: 1, 52, 2, 26, 4, 13 HCF = 4

The key to two-way tables is to fill in what you definitely can work
out first and the other answer will ‘fall into place’.
Completed table is as follows:
21 26 Boys Girls Total
Packed Lunch 14 22 36
School Dinner 59 20 79
Goes Home 23 62 85
Total 96 104 200
Working is
96 – 14 – 23 = 59
36 – 14 = 22
79 – 59 = 20
200 – 36 – 79 = 85
200 – 96 = 104
104 – 22 – 20 = 62
27 Imagine that a is for apples and b is for bananas
4a – 5a = - a (no number 1 in algebra)

9b - a
or
3b + 6b = 9b – a + 9b
28 Again, think of p as pence (money)
33p + 6p – 3p = 36p and do not forget the -17 36p – 17

29 4 apples x 2 = 8 apples
8a

30 Think of c = cats and d =dogs

cat + cat + cat = 3cats = 3c then + 2dogs 3c+2d
31 x = 34° and to nearest 10° = 30°
32 x = 133° and to nearest 10° = 130°
33 x = 305° and to nearest 10°
= 310°
Ask your parents to measure your angles to check. You
will be allowed to be 2° out either side.
34 Answers from 31° to 35°

35 Answers from 163° to 167°
36 40 The answers should be as follows:

order to gain full marks – they are simply shown here for working
purposes.
1/2 1/4 1/2 x 3 = 3/6
6/10 3/4 6/10 ÷ 2 = 3/5

1/5 3/6 1/5 x 4 = 4/20
6/8 3/5 6/8 ÷ 2 = 3/4
2/8 4/20 2/8 ÷ 2 = 1/4

0.5 2/5 (same as 4/10)
0.1 5/20 (same as 1/4)
0.125 1/8 (1/2 of 1/4)
46 The time difference from 8:08 to 8:45 is 37 minutes

47 This is how frequently the bus runs (from Qn 46) -

37 minutes
48 Bus 3 (third bus). This takes 27 mins (9:22 – 9:49) where as the other
take 23 mins to complete the trip from the by station to the town
centre.
Bus 3
49 The journey should take 23 mins (from Qn 48) but we need to add
on 3 minutes to each stop at the Bus Station, Shops, The Hill and
The Grove.
35 minutes
3 mins x 4 = 12 mins
23 mins + 12 mins =
50 The buses run every 37 minutes (from Qn 46) so 9:59 + 37 mins = 10:36
