[quote=\"MummySTay\"]Yeah, just worked out the answer myself. Paper 1 #15 is 24 days. Sigh! My DD got it wrong.
Listing, although it will take longer, is a fool-proof method!
No, the ans is 26 days. this is a trick question.[/quote]My Gal say she Put down 26 days (start counting from Mon)
and it's the Wrong Ans (Coz her frens says have to start counting from Fri to get the least no of Days) -

DS is taking his nap now.
Will do the Nan Yang and Rosyth science and chinese papers later.
Heard that both the Nan Yang and Rosyth papers are tough.
The Nan Hua science prelim paper is real tough too. -
Guitar:
Aiyo, i got 26 also. My son said it's 24. So the answer is 26 or 24?MummySTay:
Hi Guitar, how did u get 26? Because Qn 15 asks for least no. of days. I agree this is a trick question, so cannot start reading on Mon. Must start on either Thurs or Fri. Then can get 24 days. My DD also got 26, but she knows her answer is wrong.
Yes, you're right. My DD thought she started reading on Monday... -

I think they did this working:Q13)
alan and ben ran around a 400m track for a competition. alan''s speed was 190m/min. ben's speed was 25m/min less than alan's.
how many complete rounds had alan travelled before he had travelled 300m more than ben?
is the answer 5, 5.7 or 6
i put 6 but the rest of my classmates put 5
300/25=12min
12x190=2280m
2280/400=5.7
Not supposed to round up, as he has not completed the 6th round. So I think 5.7 is rounded down to 5. -
Vanilla Cake:
Should be around that.DD2 just came back and told me that she finished:
Paper 1: About 25 min (time allocated was 50 min)
Paper 2: About 35 min (time allocated was 1 h 40 min)
Really makes me :yikes:

shuld be 5 because they asked for complete rounds, and only 5 rounds was completed, the sixth round was 3/4 completed.
