Hi, I'm unable to find the answers.
Hi Vivia, The final four pages of the PDF are the answer sheets. If there is anything else I can assist you with, please don't hesitate to contact me.
I just want to log an error in the Length questions. On the question sheet, the first question gives a time of 5 hours and 52 minutes. This makes part b quite difficult as the students are trying to divide 352 minutes by 50 km. In the answer sheet however, the time given is 5 hours and 50 minutes which is a whole lot easier to divide by 50.
Hi Lauren, Thank you very much for bringing this error to our attention. We have updated the question sheet to reflect the 5 hours and 50 minutes that is on the answer sheet. My apologies for any inconvenience caused and thank you again for letting us know. Kind regards Jill
