Revision questions

Current mode: Quick unit check. Use written working and include units where needed.

  1. Money

    1. A lunch costs £3.00 for a sandwich, £0.90 for a drink and 65p for fruit. What is the total cost?

    distance travelled and fuel used

    Hint: A line of best fit gives an estimate from the overall trend.

  3. Probability

    3. Use the spinner table. What is the probability of landing on blue?

    Fair spinner

    Red1
    Blue3
    Yellow2
    Total sections6

    Hint: Use the number of blue sections over the total number of sections.

  4. Measurement

    4. On a plan, 1 cm represents 5 m. What real length is shown by 10 cm?

    Hint: Multiply the drawing length by the real-life scale.

  5. Speed, Distance and Time

    5. A minibus leaves at 11:00 and arrives at 13:00 after travelling 120 km. Find the average speed.

    Hint: Find the duration from the times, then divide distance by hours.

  6. Percentages

    6. A survey result is written as 0.2. Write this as a percentage.

    Hint: Multiply the decimal by 100 to write it as a percentage.

Method checklist

  • Check pupils chose the correct operation before calculating.
  • Look for correct units such as £, m², cm³, km/h and minutes.
  • Ask for a short conclusion on comparison and decision questions.
  • Follow up repeated errors with homework, worksheets or a diagnostic starter.
