Unless clairvoyance (alongside logic and trial and error) is being taught in KS2, there are definitely 2 impossible questions in my pack. :)

Hope you've got a crystal ball :)

Mrs Woods ordered some school textbooks.
She worked out her order on rough paper.
She then began to copy the order onto the order form, as shown below.

The order form is completely empty - I assume this is a printing error and should be partially completed.

How many science books did she order?

I initially thought 30 (average class size and all that) but the options were 3, 5, 11, 12, 15. So I thought 15. 1 text book between 2 pupils. The answer is apparently 5. What do I know?

What I am sure of, is that the parents were charged for the books via parent pay if my experience is anything to go by. :)

This is clearly printing error. Try to exchange the book.

Thank you Claza1982, Guest55, Yes, Redpanda for your help. Finally we(DS2) are done with 11+, and most importantly no more 11+.
