for one minute

Ravi uses the recipe to make strawberry milkshakes for his friends.
He has
●​ 42 strawberries
●​ 1.2 litres milk
●​ 30 ice cubes
Calculate the maximum number of milkshakes Ravi could make with his ingredients.
Show your working.
Strawberries 6 x7 = 42
Milk 200 x 6 =1200ml

Ice cubes 3 x 10 = 3

All the ingredients are enough for 6 milkskakes

6 milkshakes [2]

2.​ Five pieces of fish weigh 900 grams.

Work out the weight of:

a.​ 1 piece of fish

900 ÷ 5 = 180gm

180 grams [1]

b.​ 7 pieces of fish

180 x 7 = 1260 grams

6. Angles a, b and c can be arranged to make a straight line.

Angle a is smaller than angle b.

Angle a is larger than angle c.
The total of the two smaller angles is equal to the size of the largest angle.

Write possible values for angles a, b and c.

b = 90° and
Any value for a and c where a is greater than c and a + c = 90°(eg a =70° and b = 20°)

a = ………………°
b =.........................°
c = ………………° [2]

 7. A rectangle and an isosceles triangle are on a straight line.

It is an isosceles triangle.
Other angle of the triangle = 180° – 80° = 50°
2
a = 180° – (90° + 50°) = 40°

Calculate the value of the angle marked a. ………………. [1]

10. Ahmed has $200.

2
He spends 5 of his money on a new shirt.

Ravi has $80

1
He wants to buy a shirt that costs 1 2 times the amount of money he has.

Calculate the difference between the prices of the two shirts.

2
Ahmed = 5 x 200 = $80
1
Ravi = 1 2 x 80 = 80 + 40 = $ 120
Difference = 120 – 80 = $40

14. Linda, Cheryl, Abby, Bina and Zia buy one large pizza and three small pizzas to share
between them .
Large pizzas cost $8.50
Small pizzas cost $6.75

= 8.50 + 20.25
= $28. 75

Each person pays = 28.75 ÷ 5 = $5.75
