Answer: 82
- Parentheses: 6 − 4 = 2
- Exponent: 82 = 64
- Multiply: 9 × 2 = 18
- 64 + 18 = 82
4.5 × 3 − 3 × 5
Answer: 0
- 5 × 3 = 15 and 3 × 5 = 15

Answer: 39
- Parentheses: 5 − 4 = 1
- Exponent: 62 = 36
- Multiply: 3 × 1 = 3
- 36 + 3 = 39
9.22 + 5 × (7 − 4)
Answer: 19
- Parentheses: 7 − 4 = 3
- Exponent: 22 = 4
- Multiply: 5 × 3 = 15
- 4 + 15 = 19
10.(6 + 4)2 ÷ 10
Answer: 10
- Parentheses: 6 + 4 = 10
- Exponent: 102 = 100
- 100 ÷ 10 = 10
11.(7 + 5)2 ÷ 12
Answer: 12
- Parentheses: 7 + 5 = 12
- Exponent: 122 = 144
- 144 ÷ 12 = 12
12.8 × 8 − 4 × 2
Answer: 56

Marking tips
- Give credit for correct method even when the final answer slips — the working shows where the thinking went right.
- For open-ended tasks, use the success criteria as a checklist rather than looking for one "right" answer.
- Celebrate what went well first, then pick one thing to work on next.
Great work. Here's what to try next:
