Does a response receive full credit if the student subtracts $30.35 from $40.43 and then rounds the solution ($10.18) to $10 in Part A?
A6-35-2: Yes. This may seem contrary to what is stated in the previous question. However, work is not required to be shown for the response in Part A. If the work is not explicitly asked for in a particular section, any work shown is not to be taken into consideration for that section. As long as there is an answer of $10 in the answer blank, and Part B is correct, the answer is sufficient for full credit for the problem (3 score points out of 3).
