(a) Find the total number of students in S1A and the total number of students in S1B (2 marks)
(b) Find the number of students in S1A with weights equal 62 kg. (1 mark)
(c) Find the weight of the heaviest student(s) in S1A. (1 mark)
(d) Find the weight of the thinnest student(s) in S1B (1 mark)
(e) From the diagram above, students of which class are generally thinner? (1 mark)
(f) If students heavier than 80 kg are recommended to join a weight controlling (1 mark)
camp, how many students in S1B will be recommended to join the camp?
(7 marks)

(a) the total number of students in S1A is 39 1A

the total number of students in S1B is 40 1A

(b) the number of students in S1A with weights equal 62 kg is 2 1A

(c) the weight of the heaviest student(s) in S1A is 86 kg 1A

2. Three students, Peter, John and Henry have $16.8, $24.3 and $32.5 respectively.
(a) By rounding down the amount owned by each student to the nearest dollar, estimate the
(3 marks)
total amount they have.
(b) If the three students want to buy a football of price $70, will they have enough money to
(2 marks)
buy the football? Use the result of (a) to explain your answer.
(5 marks)

(a) the total amount they have = 16.8 + 24.3 + 32.5 1A

 16 + 24 + 32 1A PP-1 for using ‘=’
= $ 72 1A u-1 for missing unit

(b) Yes. 1A
because the round down total is always less than the exact total, so
their exact total must be greater than $72, which is more than enough 1A
to pay for a football which costs $70 only.

S.1 MATHEMATICS PAPER 1

MARKING SCHEME

General Marking Instructions

1. In general, a correct answer merits all the marks allocated to that part, unless a particular method has been
specified in the question.

2. In the marking scheme, marks are classified into the following three categories:
‘M’ marks awarded for correct methods being used;
‘A’ marks awarded for the accuracy of the answers;
Marks without ‘M’ or ‘A’ awarded for correctly completing a proof or arriving at an answer
given in a question.
In a question consisting of several parts each depending on the previous parts, ‘M’ marks should be awarded to
steps or methods correctly deduced from previous answers, even if these answers are erroneous. However, ‘A’
marks for the corresponding answers should NOT be awarded (unless otherwise specified).

3. Marks may be deducted for wrong units (u) or poor presentation (pp).

a. The symbol u – 1 should be used to denote 1 mark deducted for u. At most deduct 1 mark for u for the
whole paper.

b. The symbol pp – 1 should be used to denote 1 mark deducted for pp. At most deduct 3 marks for pp for
the whole paper. For similar pp, deduct 1 mark for the first time that it occurs. Do not penalize candidates
twice in the paper for the same pp.

c. At most deduct 1 mark in each question. Deduct the mark for u first if both marks for u and pp may be
deducted in the same question.

d. In any case, do not deduct any marks for pp or u in those steps where candidates could not score any
marks.

4. All fractional answers must be simplified.
