Show your working clearly. Distance 74.5 2.25 70 2 1 (must show rounding to 1 s.f. each) 140 km 1 M A = = −−− = −−− Answer ………………..… km [2] (c) Without doing any calculation, explain why the actual distance travelled by the car is greater than the answer to (b). Answer [1] Both the average speed and time is greater than the 1 significant figure rounded values of speed and time respectively. Thus, the actual distance travelled is greater than the answer in part (b). ----- B1 ________________________________________________________________________ 8 Isha has written down five numbers.
