Grades 6/7Non-calculator
  1. Question 1. The highest common factor of 84 and n is 12
    The lowest common multiple of 84 and n is 252
    Work out the value of n.
    You must show your working.

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: 84 × n = 12 × 252 (product of the two numbers equals product of HCF and LCM), or 84 = 2² × 3 × 7 and 252 = 2² × 3² × 7
    2. M1: n = dfrac12 × 25284, or n = 2² × 3²
    3. A1: 36
    Answer: 36

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: y + 3 = dfrac8x
    2. M1: x(y + 3) = 8
    3. A1: x = dfrac8y + 3
    Answer: x = dfrac8y + 3

    1. B1: No
    2. B1: the angle given is not opposite either of the sides given (there is no side and its opposite angle)
    Answer: No, because no side is given together with the angle opposite it

  5. Question 5. The line x = 3 meets the circle x² + y² = 58 at the points P and Q.
    Work out the length of PQ.

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: substitutes x = 3: 9 + y² = 58
    2. M1: y² = 49, so y = 7 or y = -7
    3. A1: PQ = 7 - (-7) = 14
