[@162maths]

@Anya_Music88 you got this

[@pearll8819]

on questions 14 where did the plus 5 come from when finding the largest value? thank you

[@162maths]

Largest value = smallest value + range and the smallest value is 5. Hope this makes sense :)

[@CR7SIUU710]

y do u have to add 5 for q14 at the end

[@162maths]

Because the highest number is the smallest + range

[@najat679]

How come on q14 we add 5 to find the largest value? Where did 5 come from

[@162maths]

Smallest value + range = highest value

[@162maths]

I’m not sure what you’ve written?

[@charlessikasula3904]

I think u accidentally added the two numbers instead of subtracting 23:07

[@162maths]

It’s correct but you need to be careful with negatives and positives in sim equations

[@Disappear.]

Don’t stress about mocks use it to see what you know what you don’t, how effect you’re method of revision is in prep for the real exam. If anything see as a test of where you are and how much work you need to do
