for such simple q is working out ever required or plug into calc and write answer is enough (1 Viewer)

for such 1 markers would working out ever be required, or is it just expected u plug into calc and write the answer cuz i feel its unnecessary but don't wanna risk it

At the very least, part (iii) is more than just writing the answer, because you would write and then have to realise the denominator. For (i) and (ii) it never hurts to put more information if you're afraid of losing a mark.

If you observe the following solutions:



You may establish that there is a consistency between the solutions and what was said by yanujw above.

Looking at the solutions, it doesn't seem like there is much required in terms of actual working anyway.

Yep it ain't a lot and not worth to lose a mark on that, thx

One way to avoid calculator-only answers is to ask questions where decimalised answers won't be acceptable, like

seems like more effort to input in the calc than just do it quickly like normal
