mark schemes being wrong

Has anyone else had trouble with any of the mark schemes? I've found that a couple have either the wrong answers, or fractions haven't been completely brought down to their lowest common denominators etc. I highlight the 2004 paper 4 markscheme, questions 7 b i, ii, & iii. All three answers can be brought down to lower numbers.

Assalamoalaikum!!
well u r probably speaking abt IGCSE Maths...well let me tell u that's nt a mistake...if u notice..next to these questions ''o.e.'' must be written which means or equivalent...so whether u simplify or u dont..it wont matter..u'll be awarded the marks unless the question specifically asks u to give in the lowest terms :)

hope this answers ur question! :)
