Susan Daughtrey Bright Sparks Practice Test paper 1 Typo

[Tinkers]

SO this can help any one else using this set I found a typo on q19 (rather DD did and started complaining when doing the paper!)
c=60 rather than 6, otherwise theres no correct answer.

I tried the web address in the pack
http://www.susandaughtreyeducation.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; to ask/inform of this but it doesn't work. Has anyone else come across this error before? Can I contact someone else to let them know?

I hate to break it to you, but the question is correct:

A = 0
B = 3
C = 6
D = 20
E = 40

E x B / D - C = ?

40 x 3 = 120
120 / 20 = 6
6 - 6 = 0

The answer is A.

At least she got the rest right and has a year to go.

Your poor pupils!

Orson - I think that's a bit over the top.

BIDMAS is not an easy concept and we all make mistakes when we are rushing - this forum is no place for unkind comments

[Tinkers]

In my defence, I'm in pain with a bad back and haven't been sleeping well. (and it's ten years since I taught, losing my touch, my mental maths WAS very good).

Your poor pupils!

A most unnecessary comment, Orson.

11+ practice has a way of making you glaze over at times. Even experienced tutors have moments when they just go completely blank on a particular question.

My sons have reported back on many occasions when exceptionally good teachers have had the same thing happen to them. It is the teacher's equivalent to a TV commentator's "Coleman Balls" moment.

[Orson]

Please accept my apologies, one and all. Comment most unnecessary but only meant in jest.

Please accept my apologies, one and all. Comment most unnecessary but only meant in jest.

Much appreciated, Orson, and thank you on behalf of the OP.

Dear Tinkers,

The fact you admitted your crime means you are a fantastic teacher and have nothing to hide! I am quite proud to say I got stuck on a question my daughter tackled in half a second! She just counted the corners without looking for a trick question
