NATIONAL SENIOR CERTIFICATE GRADE 11 NOVEMBER 2025 MATHEMATICAL LITERACY P2 MARKING GUIDELINES MARKS: 100 Symbol Explanation M Method MA Method with accuracy CA Consistent accuracy A Accuracy C Conversion S Simplification RT Reading from a table/graph/diagram SF Correct substitution in a formula O Opinion/Explanation/Reasoning P Penalty, e.g. for no units, incorrect rounding off, etc. R Rounding Off/Reason NPR No penalty for correct rounding minimum two decimal places AO Answer only MCA Method with consistent accuracy RCA Rounding with consistent accuracy This marking guidelines consist of 10 pages.
2 MATHEMATICAL LITERACY P2 (EC/NOVEMBER 2025) MARKING GUIDELINES NOTE: • If a candidate answers a question TWICE, only mark the FIRST attempt. • If a candidate has crossed out (cancelled) an attempt to a question and NOT redone the solution, mark the crossed out (cancelled) version. • Consistent Accuracy (CA) applies in ALL aspects of the marking guidelines; however, it stops at the second calculation error. • If the candidate presents any extra solution when reading from a graph, table, layout plan and map, then penalize for every extra incorrect item presented.
