Average Rate of Return (ARR) questions & answers, specifically for the Edexcel GCSE specification. In order to help my Year 11 revise, I had a look at exam style questions they were likely to face in Paper 2. Perfect for revision or for when you introduce the topic. I have also included some notes on the pages to help guide students. I’ve identified two types with ARR and created questions which practice the method of answering, for both styles. The booklet then gives a mix of these questions for students to answer. Perfect for lower-middle ability students Answers provided show working out Same type of questions they will get in the exam 20 questions in total. If there are any errors in my calculations (there shouldn’t be I have double checked) email me at mchughteaching@gmail.com & I’ll fix it. I would really appreciate not leaving a negative review for an easy fix, thank you.
