Description
| Summary: | This is a maths problem on calculating VAT, set in the real-life context of a shopping centre. The clip is ideal for use as a lesson starter with KS3 classes. The first problem: The presenter explains that VAT is usually 17.5%. He asks students to work out how to add 17.5% VAT on to an amount, without using a calculator. The second problem: Isaac asks how much VAT is included in a suitcase costing. This is the type of calculation that anyone doing a VAT return often needs to do. Students are asked to work it out without a calculator. See the accompanying lesson notes for further information and solutions to the problems.
