  • AState Bank
  • BSt George’s Hospital

Q14.25also accepted: four and a quarter, four and quarter, 4 and a quarter, 4 and quarter
“He weighed four and a quarter kilos when he was born”

The baby 'weighed four and a quarter kilos', written 4.25, so the decimal is not four and a half.

Q246also accepted: forty-six
“SARAH: And he’s long too, forty-six centimetres”

He is 'forty-six centimetres' long, so the length box takes 46 rather than the weight.
