Text from the first pages1 2014 Year 6 Prelim Examination Paper 1 Suggested Solution Qn Suggested Solution 1(i) m : weight of mackerel in kg s : weight of salmon in kg t : weight of tuna in kg 800 7 21 39 20300 5 23 49 23900 ms t mst mst Using GC, 200, 250, 350.mst Therefore the fisherman has 250 kg of salmon. (ii) m : weight of mackerel in kg s : weight of salmon in kg t : weight of tuna in kg 600 7 21 39 20300 5 23 49 23900 ms t mst mst Using GC, 460, 990, 70.ms t Since the weight of all fishes must be non-negative, the fisherman’s claim is not possible. Or Since the weight of salmon and tuna is more than 600kg, the fisherman’s claim is not possible.
