Q&A - PSLE Math

[MummyJamie]

I’m Jamie, child of my mum’s account XD


PSLE Maths was tough for me. I was able to answer all the questions, though. For the angles/geometry one, most of my classmates got 120, 135 or 150. I used guess & check at first, but then used ratio and got 120. Anyone used ratio & got that too?

Sally baked some cookies to sell. ¾ of them were chocolate cookies and the remaning were almond cookies. After she sold 210 chocolate cookies and 5/6 of the almond cookies, she had 1/5 of the cookies left. How many cookies did she sell?


That one was 960 right?

Most of us got that.

beatrice:

parent123 how did you do the geometry question?? i(im a student, just took it today) found it impossible. the othter questions were easy to me but i had no idea about the geometry question. i spent like 1 hour looking at it(im not exxagerating) oh and good luck on chinese tmr!!

180degrees/3=60degrees
60degrees/3=30degrees
180degrees-30degrees=150degrees

this is my solution for q17. hope its the one you are asking for

O_O

I used 180degrees / 6 = 30degrees
30 degrees x 4 = 120degrees.

Think Im wrong though. o_O
