Festival A will be in a rectangular field with an area of 80 000 m2 The greatest number of people allowed to attend Festival A is 425 Festival B will be in a rectangular field 700 m by 2000 m. The greatest number of people allowed to attend Festival B is 6750 The area per person allowed for Festival B is greater than the area per person allowed for Festival A.
How much greater? Give your answer correct to the nearest whole number.
Callum says, “300 cm2 is the same as 3 m2 because there are 100 cm in 1 m so you divide by 100” Callum’s method is wrong.

The box plot shows information about the sales, in thousands of pounds (£000s), of an online store each month.
Andrew says, “Three quarters of the given data lies between 160 000 and 350 000 because these are the values of the lower quartile and the upper quartile.” Andrew is wrong.
Explain why.
The table shows information about the sales, in £000s, in a shop each month.
| Sales (£000s) | |
| least value | 30 |
| lower quartile | 80 |
| median | 170 |
| upper quartile | 260 |
| greatest value | 350 |
(1)

Saffron wants to work out an estimate for the total number of fish in a lake. On Friday, Saffron catches 180 fish from the lake. She puts a tag on each of these fish and puts them back into the lake. On Saturday, Saffron catches 305 fish from the same lake. She finds that 45 of the 305 fish are tagged. Work out an estimate for the total number of fish in the lake.

A shop manager wants to advertise special offers on social media platforms. The manager asks 100 customers which of type A, type B or type C they use. Of these customers, 4 use all three types 16 do not use any of type A, type B or type C 8 use both type A and type B, but not type C 14 use both type B and type C 62 in total use type A all 20 who use type C also use at least one of type A and type B.
Complete the Venn diagram for this information.

One of the customers is chosen at random. Given that this customer uses type A,
find the probability that this customer also uses type B.

A solid cone is joined to a solid hemisphere to make the solid T shown below.
The diameter of the base of the cone is 7 cm. The diameter of the hemisphere is 7 cm. The total volume of T is 120πcm3 The total height of T is ycm.
Calculate the value of y. Give your answer correct to 3 significant figures.
The diameter of the base of the cone and the diameter of the hemisphere are both increased by the same amount. Assuming the total volume of T does not change,
