Step 1. Draw the blue bars
Step 2. Since 2 blue bars represent 25%, I topped up with 3 yellow bars to make 8 bars in total.
The rest should be self explanatory

Hi. You can try the following.
Step 1: 40% of the remainder kayaks. This is equivalent to 25% of the class who kayaks.
Step 2:
40% of remainder = 25% of class
so,
60% of remainder = 37.5% of class
100% of remainder of class = 25% + 37.5% = 62.5% of class
Step 3:
Since 62.5% of class kayaks and roller blades, 37.5% of class cycles. 15 students cycle.
Step 4: Since 37.5% of class cycles and there are 15 students who cycle,
37.5% ---> 15
12.5% ---> 5
100% ---> 5 x 8 = :)

Should be allowed in PSLE just that most upper level students no longer use them as they are more capable and efficient in drawing without the ruler compared to lower pri. For schools that don't allow, did the teachers give any reason? Would be good to find out why too..

Pupils are allowed to use, just that it "uses" time to draw the "perfect" picture. Upper pri kids can just draw smaller to explain their reasoning/ working fast. Can be bought at Popular.
