    Thank you very much, finally a teacher in a youtube video that goes at the actual hard question that really come up in the exam. Much appreciated.

    Thank you for your comment Mary-Kate. In most of my videos there is a symbol in the top right corner denoting a calculator for calculator based questions and a calculator crossed out for none calculator based questions. So as you can see these are calculator based questions.

    In the 3rd one the radius is rounded to nearest mm
    So shouldn't we convert 6.2 cm into mm first?

    these are so useful! thank you! just one question, at 7:52, why is the answer for lower bound 35.6 35.5 and not 35.55?

      Thanks for your comment it is nice to get feedback and for people to spot my errors ;), not easy holding it all together without making a mistake here and there. You are totally correct should be 35.55 think I had it in the working just didn't write it in the answer line. I even go on to use the correct value in the next part of the question, strange I didn't spot that :)

    In the last question is it possible that you give the answer of m as 0.23 as it would be the same for the max and min values

      I think it would be best to get it is accurate as possible so what he did was better and will get you the mark.

    Yes Momina, that is right.

    I don't understand the significant places like for example 27.6 to 3 s.f and 23.4 to 1 s.f. I don't understand them

    When you're working out for upper bounds results, why do you divide by a lower bound and not two upper bounds? I am thinking to yield a bigger result using a smaller number when dividing?
    Also, how do you know when to use a upper and a lower bound when doing the formula since the question didn't say at all apart from calculate the lower bound.

    • @RawMaths
      @RawMaths  9 років тому

      +空を変更します! Did you check out the recap of the basics video, that explains why you need to use which boundaries. But in general when subtracting and dividing you need to use opposites to get the maximum and minimum values if you are not sure try all the combinations and see which ones give the largest and smallest numbers.

    • @Novokuv
      @Novokuv 9 років тому

      I see. I done a mini experiment testing the yield of each bound division and I understand now. In the exam, is it viable to test out different bound division for the final result to secure full marks for the correct answer?
      Thanks!

    there is a mistake on the 3rd question, you need to convert the 6.2cm to mm before you can work the upper and lower bound. Sorry for interruption
