2 M/S9/MS © UCLES 2018 General guidance on marking Difference in printing It is suggested that schools check their printed copies for differences in printing that may affect the answers to the questions, for example in measurement questions. Brackets in mark scheme When brackets appear in the mark scheme this indicates extra information that is not required but may be given. For example: Question 1 Part Mark Answer Further Information 1 19.7 or 19.6(58…) Total 1 This means that 19.6 is an acceptable truncated answer even though it is not the correct rounded answer. The … means you can ignore any numbers that follow this; you do not need to check them. Accept • any correct rounding of the numbers in the brackets, e.g. 19.66, • truncations beyond the brackets, e.g. 19.65 Do not accept • 19.68 (since the numbers in brackets do not have to be present but if they are they should be correct).

3 M/S9/MS © UCLES 2018 [Turn over These tables give general guidelines on marking learner responses that aren’t specifically mentioned in the mark scheme. Any guidance specifically given in the mark scheme supersedes this guidance. Number and place value The table shows various general rules in terms of acceptable decimal answers. Accept Accept omission of leading zero if answer is clearly shown, e.g. .675 Accept tailing zeros, unless the question has asked for a specific number of decimal places or significant figures, e.g. 0.7000 Accept a comma as a decimal point if that is the convention that you have taught the learners, e.g. 0,638 Units For questions involving quantities, e.g. length, mass, money, duration or time, correct units must be given in the answer. Units are provided on the answer line unless finding the units is part of what is being assessed. The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer 1.85 m. Accept Do not accept If the unit is given on the answer line, e.g. ............................ mCorrect conversions, provided the unit is stated unambiguously, e.g. ......185 cm...... m (this is unambiguous since the unit cm comes straight after the answer, voiding the m which is now not next to the answer)......185...... m ......1850...... m etc. If the question states the unit that the answer should be given in, e.g. ‘Give your answer in metres’1.85 1 m 85 cm185; 1850 Any conversions to other units, e.g. 185 cm

4 M/S9/MS © UCLES 2018 Money In addition to the rules for units, the table below gives guidance for answers involving money. The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer $0.30. Accept Do not accept If the amount is in dollars and cents, the answer should be given to two decimal places.$0.30 For an integer number of dollars it is acceptable not to give any decimal places, e.g. $9 or $9.00$0.3 $09 or $09.00 If units are not given on the answer lineAny unambiguous indication of the correct amount, e.g. 30 cents; 30 c $0.30; $0-30; $0=30; $00:3030 or 0.30 without a unit $30; 0.30 cents Ambiguous answers, e.g. $30 cents; $0.30 c; $0.30 cents (as you do not know which unit applies because there are units either side of the number) If $ is shown on the answer line All unambiguous indications, e.g. $......0.30......; $......0-30......; $......0=30......; $......00:30......$......30...... Ambiguous answers, e.g. $......30 cents......; $......0.30 cents...... unless units on the answer line have been deleted, e.g. $ ......30 cents...... If cents is shown on the answer line......30......cents ......0.30......cents Ambiguous answers, e.g. ......$30 ......cents; ......$0.30 ......cents unless units on the answer line have been deleted, e.g. ......$0.30......cents

5 M/S9/MS © UCLES 2018 [Turn over Duration In addition to the rules for units, the table below gives guidance for answers involving time durations. The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer 2 hours and 30 minutes. Accept Do not accept Any unambiguous indication using any reasonable abbreviations of hours (h, hr, hrs), minutes (m, min, mins) and seconds (s, sec, secs), e.g. 2 hours 30 minutes; 2 h 30 m; 02 h 30 m Any correct conversion with appropriate units, e.g. 2.5 hours; 150 mins unless the question specifically asks for time given in hours and minutesIncorrect or ambiguous formats, e.g. 2.30; 2.3; 2.30 hours; 2.30 min; 2 h 3; 2.3 h (this is because this indicates 0.3 (i.e. 18 minutes) of an hour rather than 30 minutes) 02:30 (as this is a 24-hour clock time, not a time interval) 2.5; 150 Time The table below gives guidance for answers involving time. The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versions of the answer 07:30. Accept Do not accept If the answer is required in 24-hour formatAny unambiguous indication of correct answer in numbers, words or a combination of the two, e.g. 07:30 with any separator in place of the colon, e.g. 07 30; 07,30; 07-30; 07307:30 7:30 am 7 h 30 m 7:3 730 7.30 pm 073 07.3 If the answer is required in 12-hour formatAny unambiguous indication of correct answer in numbers, words or a combination of the two, e.g. 7:30 am with any separator in place of the colon, e.g. 7 30 am; 7.30 am; 7-30 am 7.30 in the morning Half past seven (o’clock) in the morning Accept am or a.m.Absence of am or pm 1930 am 7 h 30 m 7:3 730 7.30 pm

Plotting points The table shows acceptable and unacceptable ways to plot points. Accept Do not accept Crosses or dots plotted within ± 1 2 square of the correct answer The graph line passing through a point implies the point even though there is no cross.A horizontal line and vertical line from the axes meeting at the required point.
