Your reference and solution is very clear.

Dear firebird,

A very good morning to you too,
My younger sister (P5) will be taking PSLE 2011, so our family is very worried for her. That's why I have to keep track of the current P6/PSLE Maths questions and know the current trend that the P6 student must know how to answer correctly. I hope that someone like Uncle Dharma or Uncle Tianzhu may wish to create a blog to provide P6 Maths solutions for past years' questions from top schools like 2010, 2009 and so on. Just only the 18 questions in the paper 2 will be sufficient. Maybe, KSP Chief may consider creating a section in this forum whereby P6 Maths detailed solutions are worked out by resident Maths solvers like Uncle Dharma/Uncle Tianzhu in KSP forum categorised by school and level. This will allow anyone to refer to them for reference instead of duplicating and posting the same questions again and again in the Maths thread.

firebird:

I am going to call Mr. Jeremy at 90216478 for the 2010 P6 Prelim papers. Could you kindly recommend any other source or specific shop? Hope not asking you too much!

From KSP forum-http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4105, these are the possible places for selling top papers:

1. Bras Basah Complex - a number of shops are selling.
2. Near Hougang plaza - Blk 804 (not 100% sure), ground floor
3. Near Kovan MRT station - near DBS bank
4. Toa Payoh Central, next to KFC, near MRT, near an Indian Bank, at the corner.
5. Two stalls selling these papers in Thomson Plaza.
6. Tampines Mart - Sam 93397910.
7. Bukit Merah Centre (Outside NTUC)
8. Peace Center
9. Marine Parade

You are always welcome. Hope that my help is useful to you in one way or another.

Hi sally72,
Heard from Jeremy that there are 10 schools in this lot of 2010 Prelim P6 exam papers from top schools. Is this correct? Could you pls advise the names of these top schools?

Thanks.

Dear Firebird,

Sorry that I am not able to answer your question. BTW, just for your info. Some of these P6 Prelim 2010 Maths questions are pretty interesting and definitely worth a try. These schools are :

1. Raffles Girls' Primary School
2. Singapore Hokkien Huay Kuan - 5-school combined: Tao Nan, AI Tong, Chongfu, Nan Chiau and Kong Hwa
3. CHIJ St Nicholas Girls' School (Primary)
4. River Valley Primary School
5. Nanyang Primary School
6. Maha Bodhi School
7. Rosyth School
8. Pei Chun Public School
9. Red Swastika School
10. Henry Park Primary School

Sad that top schools like ACS (P), Methodist Girls' (P), Nan Hua, Catholic High, Pei Hwa, Rulang, Singapore Chinese Girls' etc are not included.

Dear Firebird,
Sure and I will try my best at least during this holiday. When schools reopen next Monday, I will be not hanging around in KSP forum. Don't worry too much, with the support of Uncle Dharma and Uncle Tianzhu, all your Maths problem sums will be solved.

Another thing to tell you, my P5 younger sister cried after browsing through these 10 sets of P6 Prelim papers. She could not solve most of the problem sums.Haha.

Hi all,


Need help with the below maths questions :

1) Tap P and Tap Q take 4 hours to fill a tank.
Tap Q and Tap R take 5 hours to fill the same tank.
Tap P and Tap R take 3 hours to complete the same task.
How long does it take to fill the tank if all 3 taps are running at the same time ?

2) RGPS 2010 P6 Prelim paper 2 qn 18
There are more pupils in School A than School B.
30% of the pupils in School A is 45 more than 40% of the pupils in School B.
If 10% of the pupils in School A leaves to join School B, there will be 200 more pupils in School A than School B.

(a) How many pupils are there in School B ? (ans : 1200)

(b) How many percent less pupils are there in School B than School A ? Leave your answer as fraction in the simplest form. (ans : 31 3/7)


Thank you very much!
