1.B — 3 centsKA-0010Money and change

• AI found the smallest amount that cannot be made rather than the largest one.
• CI did not notice that 7 is 2 plus 5, so I marked it as impossible without testing it.
• DI only tried using coins of one kind at a time and never mixed the two denominations.
• EI assumed odd amounts are impossible because one of the coins is even.

2.C — 6KA-0015Reading tables, charts, and graphs

• AI read the vertical scale as going up in ones instead of in twos.
• BI counted the gridlines between the two bar tops instead of reading the values off the scale.
• DI gave Mia's total instead of the difference between Mia and Leo.
• EI added the two amounts together rather than subtracting to find how many more.

3.C — 110KA-0029Unit conversion

• AI subtracted correctly in metres but then gave the answer in metres when centimetres were asked for.
• BI converted 3.5 metres to 35 centimetres instead of 350.
• DI subtracted without converting at all, taking 3.5 away from 240.
• EI added the two lengths instead of finding the difference between them.

4.A — 12KA-0110Bar models for part–whole

• BI split the 48 into three parts instead of the four the bars actually make.
• CI halved the total, as if the two of them had the same number each.
• DI found Bo's share correctly but then gave Ana's number instead.
• EI gave Ana's total, which is three of the four boxes, rather than Bo's one.

5.C — 750KA-0113Unit conversion

• AI worked in kilograms and gave the answer in kilograms when grams were asked for.
• BI converted 2.5 kg to 250 g rather than 2500 g.
• DI subtracted 1750 from 3000, mis-converting 2.5 kg as three thousand grams.
• EI subtracted without converting at all, taking 2.5 away from 1750.

6.B — 280KA-0114Money and change

• AI subtracted the cost of one notebook rather than all three.
• CI bought two notebooks instead of three.
• DI gave the total cost of the notebooks instead of the change.
• EI converted the 10 euro note to 1000 cents but subtracted the price of only one notebook after doubling it.

7.D — 55KA-0118Reading tables, charts, and graphs

• AI read the axis as going up in ones and added the gridline heights instead of the values.
• BI gave the tallest bar rather than the total of all four.
• CI added only three of the four bars, missing the shortest one.
• EI read the shortest bar as 10 rather than 5, because the axis steps in fives.

8.A — 8KA-0144Translating a sentence into an equation

• BI subtracted 8 from 19 rather than working the two steps backwards.
• CI subtracted the 3 from 19 and gave that without halving it.
• DI added the 3 to 19 instead of subtracting it.
• EI doubled 19 and added 3, applying the machine forwards instead of undoing it.

9.A — 2 hoursKA-0162Rate, time, distance

• BI used only the slower car's speed and divided 300 by 90 the wrong way round.
• CI averaged the two speeds to 75 km/h and divided 300 by it, which ignores that both cars move at once.
• DI divided 300 by 60, using only the slower car.
• EI halved the distance to 150 and then divided by 150, applying the closing speed twice.
