Discussion 1 4.5 6.8 10.25 (using 1 brick)
9 11.3 13.6 14.75 17.05
Multiplying or dividing both numbers by the

same quantity before dividing will not change
the answer; dividing $20 between 4 people gives 13.5 15.8 19.25 18.1 20.4

40 people, or $10 between 2 people. It keeps the 30.75 (using 3 bricks)
same proportion. But adding the same number

Town won, as their percentage increased. 4% loss.
If City have now played n matches then
0.75n = 0.8(n − 1), which gives n = 16. Discussion 5
He bought the first item for $80, so his loss was $16.
Discussion 4
His profit on the second item must be $21 which is
The percentages are not equal as they are 20% of the cost price. So the cost price is $105.

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
real-life conditions.
