1 · Numbers and the number system
  • Exact arithmetic and estimation: A prime number that divides the integer exactly.
  • Indices, surds and standard form: The power to which a base is raised.
  • Percentages, ratio and proportional reasoning: A factor that performs a percentage change in one multiplication.
  • Accuracy, bounds and compound measures: The smallest possible value consistent with a stated rounding rule.

Preparing for this qualification · ⁨备考指南⁩

  • This is linear Mathematics A (4MA1), not Mathematics B or the modular qualification.
  • Both papers use the same tier. Foundation targets 1–5; Higher targets 4–9. Tier formula sheets are supplied.

Teaching coverage still needed · ⁨仍需教学覆盖内容⁩

  • Official question-bank boundaries, scheme alignment and all objective-level teaching coverage require the recorded review; no practice registry promotion.
  • The authored diagnostic assessments are not full-length qualification mocks.
