Questions 47,48 & 49 - Can anyone help? I've had a 10 year old in tears tonight telling me the anwers are wrong and I have to agree, I just can see how these have been worked out, is it possible this is a mistake on the answer sheets or do we really need to go back to the drawing board and start our revising from the beginning!!

Back to the drawing board?

Hi Elainejacobs,

I think you will find that the paper is in fact correct.

47. If N = 4, P = 2, Q = 8 work out the following, giving your
answer as a letter:
QN ÷ 4 = (______)

QN = 8 x 4 = 32
so QN ÷ 4 = 8 = Q. Answer given is also Q

48. If R = 4, S = 6, T = 39 work out the following, giving your
answer as a number:
TR + 25 = (______)

TR = 39 x 4 = 156
TR + 25 = 181. Answer given is also 181

49. If S = 5, V = 4, W = 7 work out the following, giving your
answer as a number:
S( W + V) = (______)

W+V = 11
S (W + V) = 5 x 11 = 55. Answer given is also 55

What you need to understand is that AB is A x B then all the answers are clear.
