Main questions Using Formulas
1. Work these formula out: The formula for converting the Gas Mark (G) of a
a. (3 + 3 ) x 4 conventional oven to degrees Fahrenheit (F) is:
b. 9 x 2 – 42
F o = 25(G – 1) + 275
c. (5 + 7) ÷ 6
d. 5 + 3 x 5 Calculate the temperature (F o) of the following Gas
e. (9 – 4 ) + 5 Marks:
f. (1 + 2) x (6 – 3)
1. 5
g. 2 x (15 – 2)
2. 7
h. (5 x 4 ) + 23 3. 2
i. (8 + 2 ) ÷ 10
The distance travelled by a falling object is given as:
2. Add brackets to make these
sums correct: 𝒈𝒕𝟐
d= 𝟐
1. 3 x 4 + 2 = 18 Where:
2. 5 x 4 + 1 = 25 d = distance travelled (metres)
3. 2+3x2–5=3 g = gravity (9.81 m/s2)
4. 4 + 3 x 5 + 2 = 49 t = time (seconds)
5. 5x4+5÷5=5 Calculate the distance travelled by a falling object
after:
1. 3 seconds
2. 5 seconds
3. 20 seconds
