Hi
Could any one answer these Type K questions?

Q1-> 13 (17) 1 28 (11) 4
1 ( ) 2 ?


Q2-> 28 (57) 1 19 (63) 25
22 ( ) 9 ?


Thanks

I think for Question 1:
if you have the format...
a(b)c,
then answer is (a/c) + 4=b

Unfortunately that would not work for set 3 as answers are always whole numbers.

1 divided by 2 = 0.5
0.5 plus 4 = 4.5

Perhaps Venus 2010 has accidently reversed the numbers?

It would be helpful if any one with queries such as these could tell us:

1] The publisher
2] The answer given

You may be right but let's wait and see the data. I advised on the information given, I too thought it odd about decimals but there is always the off chance of examiners throwing in a curved call every now and then

Agreed.

Hence why it is always helpful to have the answer and publisher in addition to the query.

Thanks everyone for your help

Q1
a(b)c
b = (a/c) + 4 so the answer is 13.

Q2
a(b)c
b=2a + c so the answer is 53
