Mrs R
Most of the questions requires you to draw models(especially in Section B). And some of them are tedious. Well, I took some time to understand and solve question 8 in Section B although I think I did not get the right answer.
ReplyDeleteThe questions were quite easy-except for some questions. Like, Q3 in Section A. I don't quite understand the question. Or is it because there's something wrong with the question?
Well, question 2 in section B requires you to write 4 answers: ______, ________, ________, ______, (So, why are there only 2 decimals?)
