In the first part, the student is asked to enter dimensions of a box in a spreadsheet.

The values are extracted as a list of numbers by changing the interpreted_answer note in the first part's marking algorithm, and the calculated volume is used as the answer to the second part, through adaptive marking.

The student is asked to enter a given matrix, but they're only required to fill in the upper triangle.

A custom marking algorithm fills in any empty cells in the lower triangle of the student's answer with the corresponding cell in the upper triangle.

The student is still warned if they leave any cells empty in the upper triangle.

The student has to enter `diff(y,x,2)`, equivalent to $\frac{\mathrm{d}^2y}{\mathrm{d}x^2}$, as their answer. It's marked by pattern matching, using a custom marking algorithm.

The student has to enter three different letters of the alphabet in the three gaps. Their answer is marked as a set: repeated answers only count as one answer.

Each gap has the same custom marking algorithm which marks that gap as correct if the student's answer is in the set of acceptable answers.

Compute a table of values for a quadratic function. A JSXgraph (the graph paper) plot shows the curve going through the entered values. The student input is now disconnected from the graph so that they slide the points usually after they input the values and the answer fields are not updated.

Students are supposed to use Excel (or similar) to find the answers (e.g., enter coordinates of two points then plot and add trendline).

Uses an embedded Geogebra graph of a line $y=mx+c$ with random coefficients set by NUMBAS.

This question asks students to find the distance from an aircraft to a given marker. Angle of depression of 2 markers from the aircraft are given and the distance between the markers on the ground (all randomised). Students need to use the sine rule to find the answer. The workding of the question makes googling the answer difficult.

State the general form of the equation of a straight line explaining the role of each of the terms in your answer.

This question models an experiment: the student must collect some data and enter it at the start of the question, and the expected answers to subsequent parts are marked based on that data.

The student's values of the variables width, depth and height are stored once they move on from the first part.

This question models an experiment: the student must collect some data and enter it at the start of the question, and the expected answers to subsequent parts are marked based on that data.

A downside of working this way is that you have to set up the variable replacements on each part of the question. You could avoid this by using explore mode.

Question requires students to determine if the smallest angle of a triangle is smaller than a given value. Answer is Yes/No but students need to use cosine rule to find the smallest angle and to know that smallest angle is oppositeshortest side (otherwise they will need to find all angles of the triangle). Designed for a test where students upload handwritten working for each question as a check against guessing. Also designed to make it difficult for students to google or use AI to find the answer.

Question requires students to determine if the largest angle of a triangle is smaller than a given value. Answer is Yes/No but students need to use cosine rule to find the largest angle and to know that largest angle is opposite longest side (otherwise they will need to find all angles of the triangle). Designed for a test where students upload handwritten working for each question as a check against guessing. Also designed to make it difficult for students to google or use AI to find the answer.

Asks students to apply laws of logical equivalence to prove the equivalence between two logical statements. The quiz should accept any correct answer (as long as each step is included, with one law per step), and provides detailed feedback on mistakes.

NC NA Non-calculator and Number and Algebra strand. This number assesses students' ability to add and subtract very simple fractions. Students need two add two fractions (possibly mixed numbers) involving quarters and/or halves, then subtract their answer from a whole number. The answer must be entered in simplest form and will always be less than one.

Fractions already have a common denominator. Addition and subtraction 50:50 split, when subtracting, the answer is negative half the time. Students shouldn't have to worry about reducing fractions by design.

Divisor is a two digit number. There is a remainder which we express as a decimal by continuing the division process. No rounding is required by design (another question will include rounding off).

Divisor is a two-digit number. There is a remainder which we express as a decimal by continuing the division process. Rounding is required to one decimal place. The working suggests determining the second decimal place so the student knows whether to round up or down.

Divisor is single digit. There is a remainder which we express as a decimal by continuing the division process. No rounding is required by design (another question will include rounding off).

Divisor is single digit. There is a remainder which we express as a decimal by continuing the division process. Rounding is required to one decimal place. The working suggests determining the second decimal place so the student knows whether to round up or down.

a) Multiplying decimals with a single non-zero digit. Students are told to preserve the number of decimal places (from the question to the answer). 

b) Multiplying decimals requiring the multiplication algorithm. 

Issues: alignment in columns in the working - not sure what to do about it

Decimal divided by a decimal. Multiply by a power of ten to get an integer divisor. Long and short division process. There is a remainder which we express as a decimal by continuing the division process. Rounding is required to some number of decimal places.

A mathematical expression part with a pattern restriction to ensure that the student has extracted the highest common factor of two terms.

The answer must be of the form $a(b+cx)$, where $b$ and $c$ are coprime.
