15%->6 egg tarts
100%->40 egg tarts
40+6= 46 egg tarts (ans a)

$61.20 / 40 = $1.53 (ans b)

Check:
If 1 egg tart is $1.53
40 egg tarts should get $61.20
If Jamie got 15% discount,
$61.20 x 15% = $9.18
This extra $9.18 was used to buy 6 more egg tarts. So if I take this extra money divide by the cost of 1 egg tarts, I should get 6 egg tarts:
$9.18 / $1.53 = 6 egg tarts

Jamie spent $61.20 for egg tarts.
after discount is $1.53 for 1 egg tart.
$61.20 / $1.53 = 40 tarts bought by Jamie.
if its 46 tart, it will cost $1.53 * 46 = $70.38 instead

Today math paper was okay. Prob getting 91-94 depending on how many and I get wrong. I skip question 15 part c and I think small and big cubes part a. Part b I got 4.


It’s kind of strange why they gave part b 3 points and part a only 1 point. I found b way easier

I think the answer to all the math questions is…


IT’S OVER. TIME TO MOVE ON.

(It’s not as if you can change right to wrong or wrong to right now).

I think the average for math this time round may be quite low. Being an high A to low A* student, I really found a few of the questions hard. But many of the questions were a bit weird.



For example for questions 2,(paper 2) they asked to measure length and breath and find area. For some reason, many of the 93-97 scorers in my school could not understand that.
