MARK SCHEME
Maximum Mark: 50
Published
This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and candidates, to indicate the requirements of the
examination. It shows the basis on which Markers were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the
details of the discussions that took place at a Markers’ meeting before marking began, which would have
considered the acceptability of alternative answers.
Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the End of Series Report. Cambridge
will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes.

General guidance on marking
Difference in printing
It is suggested that schools check their printed copies for differences in printing that may affect the
answers to the questions, for example in measurement questions.
Brackets in mark scheme
When brackets appear in the mark scheme this indicates extra information that is not required but
may be given.
For example:
Question Answer Mark Part marks Guidance
5 19.7 or 19.6(58…) 1
This means that 19.6 is an acceptable truncated answer even though it is not the correct rounded
answer.
The … means you can ignore any numbers that follow this; you do not need to check them.
Accept
• any correct rounding of the numbers in the brackets, e.g. 19.66
• truncations beyond the brackets, e.g. 19.65
Do not accept
• 19.68 (since the numbers in brackets do not have to be present but if they are they should be
correct).

These tables give general guidelines on marking learner responses that are not specifically mentioned
in the mark scheme. Any guidance specifically given in the mark scheme supersedes this guidance.
Number and place value
The table shows various general rules in terms of acceptable decimal answers.
Accept
Accept omission of leading zero if answer is clearly shown, e.g.

.675
Accept trailing zeros, unless the question has asked for a specific number of decimal places or
significant figures, e.g.
0.7000
Accept a comma as a decimal point if that is the convention that you have taught the learners, e.g.
0,638
Units
For questions involving quantities, e.g. length, mass, money, duration or time, correct units must be
given in the answer. Units are provided on the answer line unless finding the units is part of what is
being assessed.
The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer 1.85 m.
Accept Do not accept
If the unit is given on the Correct conversions, provided ......185...... m

answer line, e.g. the unit is stated ......1850...... m etc.
............................ m unambiguously,
e.g. ......185 cm...... m (this is
unambiguous since the unit cm
comes straight after the
answer, voiding the m which is
now not next to the answer)
If the question states the unit 1.85 185; 1850

that the answer should be 1 m 85 cm Any conversions to other units,
given in, e.g. ‘Give your answer e.g. 185 cm
in metres’

Money
In addition to the rules for units, the table below gives guidance for answers involving money.
The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer $0.30
If the amount is in dollars and $0.30 $0.3

cents, the answer should be
given to two decimal places For an integer number of $09 or $09.00
dollars it is acceptable not to
give any decimal places, e.g.
$9 or $9.00
If units are not given on the Any unambiguous indication of 30 or 0.30 without a unit
answer line the correct amount, e.g.
30 cents; 30 c $30; 0.30 cents
$0.30; $0–30; $0=30; $00:30
Ambiguous answers, e.g.
$30 cents; $0.30 c; $0.30 cents
(as you do not know which unit
applies because there are units
either side of the number)
If $ is shown on the answer line All unambiguous indications, $......30......

e.g. $......0.30......;
$......0-30......; Ambiguous answers, e.g.
$......0=30......; $......30 cents......;
$......00:30...... $......0.30 cents......
unless units on the answer line
have been deleted, e.g.
$......30 cents......
If cents is shown on the answer ......30......cents ......0.30......cents

line
......$30 ......cents;
......$0.30 ......cents
......$0.30......cents

Duration
In addition to the rules for units, the table below gives guidance for answers involving time durations.
The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer 2 hours and 30 minutes.
Any unambiguous indication using any Incorrect or ambiguous formats, e.g.

reasonable abbreviations of hours (h, hr, hrs), 2.30; 2.3; 2.30 hours; 2.30 min; 2 h 3;
minutes (m, min, mins) and 2.3 h (this is because this indicates 0.3 of
seconds (s, sec, secs), e.g. an hour (i.e.18 minutes) rather than 30 minutes)
2 hours 30 minutes; 2 h 30 m; 02 h 30 m
02:30 (as this is a 24-hour clock time, not a time
Any correct conversion with appropriate units, interval)
e.g.
2.5 hours; 150 mins 2.5; 150
unless the question specifically asks for time
given in hours and minutes
Time
The table below gives guidance for answers involving time.
The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer 07:30
If the answer is required in Any unambiguous indication 7:30

24-hour format of correct answer in numbers, 7:30 am

morning

Algebra
The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer 3x – 2
x3 – 2; 3 × x – 2 3x + –2 if it is supposed to be in simplest form
Case change in letters
Changes in letters as long as there is no

ambiguity
Accept extra brackets when factorising, e.g. 5(x + (3 + y))
Teachers must mark the final answer given. If a correct answer is seen in working but final answer is
given incorrectly then the final answer must be marked. If no answer is given on the answer line then
the final line of the working can be taken to be the final answer.
Inequalities
The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of various answers.
For the following Accept Do not accept
For 6 ≤ x < 8 [6, 8) <x<
For x ≤ –2 (–∞,–2] x < –2
(3, ∞) Just ‘3’ written on the answer line, even if x > 3

For x > 3
3<x appears in the working
Plotting points
The table shows acceptable and unacceptable ways to plot points.

This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and learners, to indicate the requirements of the
examination. However, we have not been able to adjust it to reflect the full range of answers that would have
been seen as a part of the normal moderation and marking process, and it does not necessarily contain all the
