Multiplying or dividing both numbers by the

the answer; dividing $20 between 4 people gives 13.5  15.8  19.25  18.1  20.4

same proportion. But adding the same number

Similarly, the surface area would be found by
subtracting the surface area of the smaller solid 3 a 12 [3]
from the larger solid, then adding the surface area b 3.53 or 3.528 to 3.529 ... [2]
of the plane created by the cut.

Modelling requires them to think about a situation
from the real world and to decide or choose how
to represent the situation using maths so they can
find the solution.
An investigation is a sustained exploration of a
mathematical situation, whereas modelling is a
different kind of task where the mathematics is
not given (and may not be clear) and the solutions
often have limitations due to the messiness of
