    Hi Grace,
    You can’t work out a value ie answer because they haven’t told you what numbers the letters stand for.

    Hi Nubiah,
    It’s a cube root like we did at the start of the lesson (look at your notes). Try cubing a few numbers and see which one gives you 27 as the answer; that one must then be the cube root of 27.

    Hi Elise,
    Which question? If it’s Q2, you have to work out what number each letter stands for.

    I’m stuck on question 4 page 84, what is a square root key?

    Hi Lauren,
    No. It’s 3 and 5 on page 83, and 2,3,4 on page 84. (Consecutive numbers are numbers which are next to each other like 22 and 23 for example. You’ll need this in Q5)

    Ruby, it’s the key(button) on your calculator which has the square root sign on it.

    Mrs Tibble,
    Sorry to bother you on your weekend but I seem to be struggeling with page 83 Q2 and Q6. On Q2 I have put in the square root on my scientific calculator but it has not given me the answer.
    Please could you help me?
    Thank you.

    Hi Grace,
    Read the question slowly and make sure you understand what it is asking you.
    Your calculator will give you the square root of the number you put in, but then you have to work out the answer to the question from what you see on your display. You could probably work it out from your list of square numbers without actually having to use your calculator.
    In Q6 remember BIDMAS -and do the bracket first.
