Every sheet in March 1977
The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.
- 1st March 197716 students study Spanish and 8 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
- 2nd March 1977Four classes in order have frequencies 4, 4, 12, 6. Write down the cumulative frequency at the end of the third class.
