3. Both hands point to 12. It is 12 o'clock.
Answer to Question 4
1. The long hand points down to 6, which means half past. The short hand is just after 4, so the time is half past 4.
2. The long hand points to 6 again, and the short hand is between 8 and 9. The time is half past 8.
3. The long hand points to 6 and the short hand is between 11 and 12. The time is half past 11. At half past, the short hand is always halfway between two numbers.
Answer to Question 5
1. The coins are 2p, 5p and 10p. Start with the biggest coin and count on: 10, then 15, then 17. The total is 17p.
2. The coins are 50p, 20p and 10p. Count on from 50: 70, then 80. The total is 80p.
3. The coins are £1, 50p and 20p. £1 is the same as 100p, so count on: 100, 150, 170. The total is 170p, which we write as £1.70.

1. 10p + 5p. That is 2 coins.
2. 20p + 5p. That is 2 coins.
3. 10p + 2p. That is 2 coins.
4. 50p + 10p. That is 2 coins.

Answer to Question 8
1. Zara gets up at 7 o'clock: the long hand points to 12 and the short hand points to 7.
2. She has breakfast at half past 7, which is 30 minutes after she gets up.
3. Count the hours from 7 o'clock: 8 o'clock is 1 hour, 9 o'clock is 2 hours. School starts 2 hours after she gets up.
4. She leaves at 8 o'clock and school starts at 9 o'clock. 8 comes before 9, so she leaves before school starts, with 1 hour to get there.
Answer to Question 9
1. The price list says a lollipop costs 5p.
2. Add the prices of the lollipop and the mint: 5p + 2p = 7p.
3. Ben pays 10p and spends 7p. Count on from 7 to 10: 8, 9, 10. That is 3, so he gets 3p change.
4. A mint costs 2p and Ben has 3p. 3 is more than 2, so yes, he has enough, and he would still have 1p left.
Answer to Question 10
1. 20 + 10 + 5 = 35p.
2. 35 + 2 + 2 = 39p.
3. 39 − 30 = 9p.
4. 5 is less than 9. Yes.
Answer to Question 11
1. Compare the prices 8p, 6p and 9p. 9 is the biggest number, so the yo-yo costs the most.
2. Add the car and the ball: 8p + 6p. Make 10 first: 8 + 2 = 10, then 4 more makes 14p.
3. Kai pays with 20p and spends 14p. Count on from 14 to 20: that is 6, so he gets 6p change.
4. The yo-yo costs 9p but he only has 6p left. 6 is less than 9, so no, he cannot buy it. He is 3p short.

Answer to Question 13
1. Add the two prices: 20p + 10p = 30p.
2. Mia pays with 50p. Count on in tens from 30 to 50: 40, 50. That is 20, so her change is 20p.
3. The change of 20p could be one 20p coin. Another answer is two 10p coins, because 10 + 10 = 20.
4. Each bun costs 10p, so 2 buns cost 10p + 10p = 20p.
Answer to Question 14
1. Tuesday.
2. Music (Thursday).
3. Tuesday and Wednesday: 2 days.
4. Shopping and visit grandma.
5. Football, swimming, library, music are the 4 club days, so the fourth is Thursday.
Answer to Question 15
1. Add the three prices: 20p + 15p = 35p, then 35p + 10p = 45p.
2. Anya has 50p and needs 45p. 50 is more than 45, so yes, she has enough money.
3. Count on from 45 to 50: 46, 47, 48, 49, 50. That is 5, so she has 5p left.
4. Her 5p change could be one 5p coin. It could also be a 2p, a 2p and a 1p, because 2 + 2 + 1 = 5.
Answer to Question 16

4. 50p and 20p. 50 + 20 = 70.
Answer to Question 18
1. Add Monday and Tuesday: 10p + 20p = 30p.
2. Add Wednesday's 5p to the 30p: 30p + 5p = 35p.
3. Add Thursday's 10p: 35p + 10p = 45p. Adding 10 makes the tens digit go up by 1.
4. The toy costs 50p and she has 45p. Count on from 45 to 50: that is 5, so she needs 5p more.
