Answer to Question 1 (4 marks)
1. The long hand points to 12 and the short hand points to 5, so it is 5 o'clock. (1 mark)
2. The long hand points to 6 and the short hand is between 10 and 11, so it is half past 10. (1 mark)
3. Say the days in order: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Thursday comes after Wednesday. (1 mark)
4. Count from January to December: there are 12 months in a year. (1 mark)
Answer to Question 2 (4 marks)
1. Start with the bigger coin and count on: 10, then 5 more makes 15p. (1 mark)
2. Add all four coins: 10p + 5p = 15p, 15p + 2p = 17p, 17p + 1p = 18p. (1 mark)
3. One pound is the same as 100 pence: £1 = 100p. (1 mark)
4. 50 is a bigger number than 20, so the 50p coin is worth more, even if it is not the bigger coin in size. (1 mark)
Answer to Question 3 (4 marks)
1. Max pays 10p for a 6p lolly. Counting up from the price to the coin goes 7, 8, 9, 10, which is 4 steps, so he gets 4p change. (1 mark)
2. Count on from 8 to 10: 9, 10. That is 2p change. (1 mark)
3. Add the two prices: 6p + 2p = 8p. (1 mark)
4. He pays 10p for things costing 8p: 10 − 8 = 2p change. (1 mark)
Answer to Question 4 (4 marks)
1. Read the plan: at 9 o'clock it says school starts. (1 mark)
2. Lunch is at 12 o'clock and school starts at 9 o'clock. 12 comes after 9, so lunch comes after school starts. (1 mark)
3. Count the hours from 9 o'clock: 10 o'clock, 11 o'clock, 12 o'clock. That is 3 hours. (1 mark)
4. 1 hour after 8 o'clock the short hand moves on to the next number, so it is 9 o'clock. (1 mark)
Answer to Question 5 (4 marks)
1. Add the two prices: 15p + 20p = 35p. (1 mark)
2. Dani pays 50p. Count on from 35 to 50: 5 to make 40, then 10 to make 50, so 15. His change is 15p. (1 mark)
3. 1 hour after half past 9 is half past 10: the short hand moves on one number. (1 mark)
4. At half past any hour, the long hand points straight down to the 6. (1 mark)
