1. 12 hour watch is running fast ; it only shows the correct time on the hour, every hour and only on the hour. when it is half past one what time does the watch show?
1.30, 6.30,7.30,12.30 or could be either 1.30 or 7.30
2 A large open space is paved with octagonal and square paving stones. if 2000 square paving stones are used, roughly how many octagonal stones are needed.
1200, 2000, 3000, 3500, 4000
3. there are four teams in a netbll league, acorns, belles, chipmunks, and daisies. Each team receives 3 points for winning a match, 1 point for drawing a match and no points for losing a match. After each team has played every other team twice, the points scored are:
chipmucks 11, belles 10, daisies 6, acorns 6
how many games so far have resuted in a draw?
3, 4, 5, 6, or can't be sure
