14 Vishan has a ruler 30 cm long.
                 Explain how Vishan can use his ruler to draw a line exactly 42.5 cm long.
               15 a  Round 127 to the nearest 10.
                  b  Round 423 to the nearest 100.
                  c  Round 3.452 to one decimal place.
               16 Work these out.    a      12.4 × 8      b       37.65 ÷ 5
               17 Solve each of these equations.
                  a  x + 3 = 15    b  4x = 12
                  c  3x − 2 = 13   d   x   + 9 = 14

               21 Fahran has a five-sided spinner.
                  a  He spins the spinner once.
                    What is the probability that the spinner lands on:

                   i     4                                                       4   3

                    iii  a number smaller than 5?                                11

                  b  Fahran spins the spinner 50 times.
                    How many times, out of the 50 spins, would you expect the spinner to land on the number 9?
