From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity for post-16 students shows how regular sampling of a variety of prices is used to get a measure of inflation. There is more than one possible way to do this. A measure of inflation is used to...

This toolkit looks at how inflation is measured and what the data is used for. Students can use the Shopping prices comparison tool and data from the Consumer Prices Index including owner occupiers’ housing costs (CPIH) dataset. They can use them to explore the implications of inflation for consumers, businesses...

The initial problem looks at an area given between two curves. The first curve is a parabola with the x and y axis intercepts given. The second curve is a stretch parallel...

This task involves investigating various aspects of interest and depreciation, including compound interest and the effects of calculating  compound interest over different periods of time (e.g. monthly vs. weekly). The task requires...
