- Cost needs to be considered when pricing for a job
Keywords
Area - The area is the size of the surface and states the number of unit squares needed to completely cover that surface.
Common misconception
Rounding incorrectly for the stated context.
Pupils should consider the situation and ask - if rounding down, will there be enough? If rounding up, does this cover all cases? Thinking about the situation and trying different values to see what works can also help.
