sir if i did all the working in the distance question nd i forgot to divide 900 by 60 to get 15, how much will i lose?? btw i did all the working of the area :/
plus if i did the question of upper bound working but i wrote 6.15 instead of 6.1 but i did the working nd the absolute error part how much will i lose??!!
nd the question of writing to 2 significant figures i wrote 5.20000000 instead of jst 5.2 ,will this be wrong?? :(
You will get 2/4 or 3/4 for the speed-time question. It depends how generous CIE are.

If you wrote 6.15 for the bounds question, you will get 1 mark.

You will not get the mark for the significant figures question. The 7 zeros are 'significant' so you have rounded to 9sf instead of 2sf.

in significant figure question, i wrote 52 instead of 5.2 :(
do you think theyll cut marks? because their main purpose was checking if the student knows how to round their answer and not add zeros?
You will get no marks for this question.
