Submitted by Loretta Beattie on 4 April 2023.

Editor's notes

This classic maths resource, originally written for the Adult Numeracy Core Curriculum is ideal for Level 2 Functional Maths. UK users please note that I intend to update the UK version to reflect today's UK prices, etc. At the moment the original 2006 UK version is still available here.

A comprehensive answer sheet (with tips and working out) is available - for resource contributors only. Please refer to the Answer sheets page for more details.
