Work rate problems (inverse proportion)
Full lesson on Smart Notebook for the GCSE 9-1 course - covering a new type of exam question on applied inverse proportion.
I have used a table method to find the"total hours for the job" or for three part problems to find the rate ie. “what one person could do in one hour”.
Pupils really respond to using this very clear table method - good for Grade 5 Foundation classes as well as Higher too.
Lesson includes examples, mini whiteboard questions and then practice. Finishes with a GCSE Mock Set exam question and mark scheme.
