How long will you have to answer the Maths questions?

In this exercise there are 24 questions to answer. You will have 20 minutes to answer the questions in this

The recorded voice instructions will also provide you with a reminder.

Helpful things to remember

You can write in the question booklet to help you work out the answer, but you must remember to mark
z
your answer on the answer sheet using a pencil.
The question booklet will NOT be marked, so don’t spend too much time writing in it, use it for making
z
quick calculations only.
Some of the questions will include simple diagrams. These are not drawn to scale, so do NOT try to
z
measure lengths or angles from them; they are there for information only.
If you are unable to answer a question, move-on to the next question. If you have time at the end you can
z
always come back and try again.
Take care!
If you miss a question out, remember to mark the answer to the next question on the correct line of your
z
answer sheet.
