QUESTION 1 [32 MARKS]
1.1.1 150 g × 50 1M Multiplying by 2
= 7 500 g 50
= 7,5 kg 1S simplification
1C answer in kg
(3)
1.1.2 0,25 kg = 250g 1C conversion 4
1M method
number of loaves to be baked =
= 33,333 1No.of loaves
= 33
Yes, comment is valid 1O opinion
OR OR
1M method
7,5g × 50 = 375 g 1S simplification
= 0,375 kg 1C conversion
Yes, comment is valid 1O opinion
(4)
1.2.1 A = R400 + R3,50 × 120 1M method 2
= R400 + R420 1A answer for A
= R820 1M method
1A answer for B
OR (4)
A = R680 + R140
= R820
B= = 160 loaves
1.2.2 Cost = R400 + R3,50 × number of loaves 1A R400 + 2
1A product
(2)
1.2.3 Cost = R400 + R3,50 × 50 1SF substitution 2
= R575 1A answer

1.2.5 (160, R960) 1A number of 2
loaves
1A amount
(2)
1.2.6 Cost of 200 loaves = R1 100 1RT cost 3
Income from 200 loaves = R1 200 1RT income
Profit = R1 200 – R1 100 = R100 1A profit
(3)
1.2.7 1M percentage 4
1A answer
Percentage = × 100%
1Conclusion
= 9,09% (3)
Thus, claim is not valid
OR
= R110
Thus, claim is not valid
1.3 Total time = 30 hours 1A total time 4
15 1M method
Then × 30 hours = 4,5 hours 1CA expected time
100
Time given to languages = 4 hours which is less than expected for languages
Thus, the time allocated is not according the staff agreement 1O opinion
OR
Total time = 30 hours (4)
Mathematical Literacy/P2 4 NW/June 2017
NSC – Grade 11
Then 100%
= 13,3%
Thus, claim is not valid
QUESTION 2[21 MARKS]
2.1.1 Total monthly cost of electricity 1M method 3
= 324kWh × 117,86cents 1A in cents
=38 186,64 cents 1A in rand
= R381,87 (3)
2.1.2 Total monthly cost of electricity 1M block 1 3
= 350kWh × 117,86 cents+ 244,8× 163,19 cents 1M block 2
=41 251 cents + 39 948,912 cents 1S simplification
= 81 199,912 cents 1A in cents
=R812,00 1A in rand
(5)
2.1.3 Too many appliances used that consumes a lot of electricity 2A answer 4
OR (2)
Heaters used for warming up the house
OR

1A answer
BMI = 1R rounding
(3)
BMI =
= 28,25096981 kg/m2
= 28,3 kg/m2
2.2.2 Overweight 2CA answer 2
(2)
2.2.3 Diet 2A reason 4
OR (2)
Ill-health
OR
Use of weight-loss products
Accept any other relevant reason
2.2..4 ˚C= (˚F – 32˚)÷1,8 1SF temp. in ˚C 3
43˚=(˚F – 32˚) ÷1,8 1S simplification
Mathematical Literacy/P2 5 NW/June 2017
NSC – Grade 11
˚F = 43˚×1,8 +32˚ 1A answer
˚F = 109,4˚ 1R rounding
˚F = 110˚ (4)
Penalise for
rounding
QUESTION 3[22 MARKS]
3.1.1 1RT using correct 4
values
Percentage = × 100
1M method
= 69,48051948
1A answer
No, the claim is not valid 1O opinion
OR (4)
× 443 520
= R310 464
No, the claim is not valid
3.1.2 R 10 047 1M method 4
Average cost =
27 1A answer
= R372,1111 (2)
= R370
3.1.3 57 120 1M method 4
Overseas donations =
0,08 1A answer
= ¥ 714 000 1O opinion
Thus, the claim is correct (3)
3.1.4 Deliver food parcels 2O opinion 4
OR Fuel
OR Maintenance (2)
OR Going to buy garden material
OR Asking for donations
OR Attending board meetings
Accept any relevant reason
3.2.1 Volume = 100×60×30 1SF substitution 3
= 180 000 cm3 1S simplification
= 180 litres 1C conversion
(3)
3.2.2 180 litres 1M method 4
Number of fish=
7 litres 1A no. of fish
= 25,7142857 1O opinion
= 25 OR
No, 26 fish cannot fit in the tank 1M method
1A volume needed
OR 1O opinion
(3)
Volume for 26 fish= 26 × 7 litres [2 out of 3 if no. of
fish is 26]
= 182 litres
No, the volume needed is less than the volume of the tank.
3.3 180 litres = 180 × 1,7598 pint 1M method 3
= 316,764 pint 1A in pint
Mathematical Literacy/P2 6 NW/June 2017
NSC – Grade 11
316,764 pints = 316,764 ×0,125 gallons 1M method
= 39,5955 gallons 1A in gallons
= 40 gallons 1CA answer
