Bro this is better than most past paper videos I’ve seen cuz it’s fast but actually explained well

For question 13 I believe an easier way would be to add 7 and 4 = 11 and divide 88 by 11 to get 8 and then multiply 7 by 8 which is 56 and 4 multiplied by 8 which is 32. So 56 -32 is 24

Hi its okay if not but is there a list of the topics covered in the video on each question?

[tallulahglancy]

For question 22a are u supposed to plot the cumulative frequency numbers on the graph or the frequency numbers, because in the video u mixed them

[emilkeys]

Thank you for these videos! For question 25, I’m not really sure what topic Q 25 comes under. If you have any time, would you mind providing a specification reference so I can learn this topic in full?

for q10 would that means 1.5bh is wrong because i thought we could further divide by the 3 by 2

Hello, would you get the mark for question 10a (the trapezium question), if you wrote 3b/2h as is 3b/2 is my fraction and I've written h next to it to say it's multiplied or does it have to be 3bh/2
