spot use of a multiplier to get equivalent fractions with larger denominators.

These questions are designed to help you verify that you can successfully apply the techniques related to maximum-likelihood estimation we have learned in class, e.g., numerical and analytical derivation of estimators, construction of large-sample confidence intervals, and likelihood-ratio tests.

When saving the data necessary to resume an attempt, Numbas only saves the values of variables which use the random number generator.

If you naively generate a large random sample in one variable, it'll be marked as a source of randomness so Numbas will save every value in the sample. Loading this value when you resume the attempt can be very slow.

Instead, you can generate a seed value in one variable and then use it with the seedrandom function in the variable that stores your random list. Only the value of the seed needs to be saved.

Written to help prepare pre-service teachers for the numeracy test in Australia called LANTITE.

Based on the Australian Core Skills Framework - numeracy - level 3 - personal and community sample activity:Accurately measures a range of quantities to follow a recipe or operating instructions
incorporating making a product of a smaller or larger size than specified, e.g. follows a recipe
for six people and can adjust it to cater for 24 people

Has an annoying plural issue

This is a copy of a question from the Numbas demos project, with references to the editor removed.

The student is shown a plot of a mystery function. They can enter values of $x$ check, within the bounds of the plot.

They're asked to give the formula for the function, and then asked for its value at a very large value of $x$.

A plot of the student's function updates automatically as they type. Adaptive marking is used for the final part to award credit if the student gives the right value for their incorrect function.

In four parts, the student builds up the definition of a class representing a rectangle. First they write the constructor, then add methods to compute area and perimeter.

In the final part, they must use the methods to write a function which determines if a rectangle's area is larger than its perimeter.

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.

Some students believe a decimal is larger if it is longer, some believe a decimal is larger if its first non-zero digit is larger.

Simplify an algebraic fraction that is fully factorised with common factors between the numerator and denominator, and one of the variables has a larger index on the denominator. Part of HELM Book 1.4

Asks students to add and multiply two integers modulo another integer.  The modulus is a random number between 30 and 70, the summands are set to be large enough that modular reduction will be necessary.

Write a large number and a small number in scientific notation. (Numbers contain 5 digits). Indices range from -7 to +7, excluding 0 and 1

Primarily concerned with identifying when a number is in the thousands, million, billions or trillions.

Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). MG = Measurement & Geometry strand. Two cube-shaped flowerpots are shown, and their lengths given. The larger pot is either double or triple the length of the smaller pot. Students must work out the volume of the larger pot given the smaller one. There are eight potential questions.

Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). NA = Number & Algebra strand. Students are given a ratio, and the total number of dancers. They must calculate the number of girls (the larger share). The ratio, and total number are randomly generated.

Simple multiplication including multiples of 10, with answer that can be multiples of up to 1000.

Give the student a larger area to write some free-form text, which isn't marked.

A couple of different ways of asking the student to enter a large number, to get around the floating point imprecision problem.
