Mathematical Literacy/P2 2 Hlayiso/Mock 2026
NSC – Marking Guidelines
SYMBOL AND EXPLANATION
Symbol Explanation Symbol Explanation
M Method A Accuracy
MA Method with accuracy CA Consistent accuracy
C Conversion D Definition
F Choosing the correct formula SF Substitution in a formula
J Justification O Opinion/Reason/Example
P Penalty (e.g. no units, incorrect rounding) R Rounding
RT/RM Reading from a table/map S Simplification
NPR No penalty for rounding AO Answer only, full marks
KEY TO TOPIC AND LEVEL: M = Measurement; MP = Maps, plans and other representations; P
= Probability; L1–L4 = cognitive levels 1 to 4
NOTE:
• If a candidate answers a question TWICE, only mark the FIRST attempt.
• Consistent accuracy (CA) applies in ALL aspects of the marking guidelines; however, it stops at
the second calculation error.
• Answers only, without working, are awarded full marks unless stated otherwise.
