[davidhill]

any thanks for these videos, they are so helpful in improving my maths skills.

[CamMathsTutor]

Fantastic explanation, keep up the great work!

[alexplayz]

Great video, helped so much thanks alot

[juweiriahussain]

thank you for this video! However, i dont understand why you multiplied for question 17 method A instead of adding

[Alaia]

Hello Mr Tompkins
Ques 17 why did you use number 9
If it is eoeo
This should be
Even no. 2, 4, 6, 8=4
Odd no. 1, 3, 5, 7=4
4×4×4×4=256

[michaelbarker]

This is so brilliant, thanks so much.

[spoop]

"fun times" 😂 yes, very much so

Hello Mr Tompkins! On question 27: 10/30 when we start, 9/31 for the first pick, 8/32 for the second pick I can understand. My question is for when "another disc is taken at random". Should we not proceed to this step? Should we not have 7/31 at this point? Thank you.

[nothanksthankyou]

just completed this paper to practice exam skills, is 40 marks ok?

[kadivkida]

question 23 - do the answers have to be in fraction form. i got the equivalent of the fractions you wrote, but in decimal form. would i still get the mark?

[gabrielasoares]

Do you know what is going to be the questions for the new paper for mocks next week? Aqa math higher, and what papers they gona use to base the questions, thank youu

[TalhaConh]

On minute 18:18 why did you specifically choose -5 I don't understand

[Lovelyxa]

on question 17 it dosent say the number a which the even and odd go up to so are we just meant to assume

[champagnemam]

in @1:09:26 i don’t understand how the middle bar is 6.6 x5
