That’s it.

Close — count the $2 coins and the $1 coins separately, then add.

Three $2 coins are 3 × $2 = $6, and four $1 coins are $4. Together that is $6 + $4 = $10. Sorting the coins by value before adding keeps the count tidy.

Yes — nicely spotted.

Close — work out how much the pattern jumps each time.

The pattern counts up by 3 each time (3, 6, 9, 12), so the next number is 12 + 3 = 15. Finding the step between two numbers is the key to continuing a pattern.

Exactly.

Close — find one quarter first, then take three of them.

One quarter of 24 is 24 ÷ 4 = 6, so three quarters is 6 × 3 = 18. Finding one part first, then scaling up, works for any fraction of an amount.

That’s it.

Close — add up all four sides, not just two.

Perimeter is the distance around the outside: 8 + 5 + 8 + 5 = 26 metres, or 2 × (8 + 5). The trap here is 40, which is the area (8 × 5) — perimeter adds the sides, area multiplies them.

Well reasoned.

Close — 25% is the amount taken off, not the new price.

25% of $80 is one quarter, which is $20. That is the discount, so the sale price is $80 − $20 = $60. Work out the discount first, then subtract it from the original price.

Exactly right.

Close — undo the +4 before you divide.

Subtract 4 from both sides: 3n = 15. Then divide both sides by 3: n = 5. Undoing the operations in reverse order isolates n and keeps the equation balanced.

That’s it.

Close — look at what Tom does and what the sky is doing.

The grey sky, the “cold drops” starting to fall and Tom pulling his coat tight all point to cold, rainy weather. Reading questions ask you to gather the clues a writer gives, rather than guess.

Yes — that’s the big idea.

Close — that’s one detail, not what the whole paragraph is about.

Every sentence builds toward one point: bees help plants — and our food — grow. Collecting nectar is a supporting detail, not the main idea. The main idea is the umbrella that the other sentences sit under.

That’s it.

Close — she waits before sharing, so how does she feel about it?

She holds back until she has checked her results again, so she is unwilling — hesitant — to share them yet. The surrounding words show that “reluctant” is the opposite of eager. Nearby clues usually reveal a word’s meaning.

Well read.

Close — think about why nearly everyone has already left.

A stadium emptied except for a few fans, whose voices sound “thin against the vast stands,” paints a picture of disappointment — most supporters have gone home. Writers often show a mood through detail instead of stating it outright.

Exactly.

Close — notice the two things the phrase sets against each other.

“Long on promises but short on detail” balances many promises against little explanation — a quiet criticism. Recognising this kind of contrast helps you hear a writer’s real opinion beneath the words.

That’s it.

Close — remember the rule about the letters i and e.

The correct spelling is receive. It follows the “i before e, except after c” guide — because the letter before is c, the e comes first: rec-ei-ve. A few reliable spelling rules help with tricky words like this.

Nicely done.

Close — look for a smaller word hidden in the middle.

The correct spelling is separate — it hides the word “a rat” in the middle (sep-a-rat-e). Finding a smaller word inside a tricky one is a handy way to remember its spelling.

That’s it.

Close — find the true subject of the sentence first.

The subject is “the list,” which is singular, so it takes “is.” The plural word “ingredients” sits inside a describing phrase and can tempt you toward “are” — but the verb must match the real subject, not the nearest noun.

Well punctuated.

Close — where does the opening phrase end and the main sentence begin?

A comma belongs after an opening phrase that sets the scene — “After the storm passed” — and before the main part of the sentence starts. It marks the natural pause and keeps the meaning clear.

Exactly right.

Close — a spoken question keeps its question mark inside the quotes.

The words actually spoken sit inside the quotation marks, and a spoken question keeps its question mark inside them too: “Are you coming with us?” The question mark also does the job the comma would otherwise do before “asked Priya.”
