In a series of posts, we will detail the start of year results for the Axiom Maths/No More Marking Mathematics Research Project being carried out this year.
Can you share the total breakdown of responses for Q11? How many students total picked a, b, c, d, and e? This is a great example of a straightforward misconception and I'd like to highlight it in an upcoming presentation I'm doing. Many thanks.

Hi Benjamin - yes of course. A) 6.5%, B) 25.8%, C) 9.9%, D) 7.1% and E) 50.8%. Hope that helps!
That's great, thank you!
I guess kids who chose 3 in Q14 thought of the sequence 1,2,3 being formed
Ah yes, that is a possibility! I hadn't spotted that!
Has something gone wrong with Q14? I can't get the 'right' answer.
Hi Peter - I have it as convert to 5/3 x 11/4 = 55/12 = 4 7/12. So the answer is C) 4. Let me know if you disagree!
