Apply

Apply what you have revised about money and decimals.

Do not use a calculator.

Remember

When working with money, convert all amounts to either pence or pounds before starting any calculations.

When comparing decimals, use zeros to make all numbers have the same number of digits after the decimal point and then compare number size easily.

Line up the decimal points when you are adding or subtracting decimal values.

Estimate an answer to any multiplication and division questions using rounded values and use this to check your answer. Is it what you expected? If not, go back and check your calculations.

Include units in your answer, e.g. £, and check whether the question asks for specific units.

Where necessary, finish questions with a concluding sentence stating what your calculations have shown, especially when deciding on best value or converting currencies.
