Solving Linear Equations GCSE Maths Booklets | Foundation & Higher + Mark Schemes

Graded practice in solving equations, building from one-step equations to unknowns on both sides, fractions and brackets.

What’s included
• Foundation Tier practice booklet: 30 questions, 86 marks (15 pages)
• Higher Tier practice booklet: 30 questions, 112 marks (16 pages)
• Full mark scheme for each booklet, giving the answer and worked method for every question

Questions are grouped into three difficulty bands (Developing, Secure and Greater Depth), so students move from fluency to exam-style problem solving. Each question shows its mark allocation and has working space underneath.

Foundation Tier covers
• One-step and two-step equations
• Equations with brackets
• Unknowns on both sides
• Equations involving fractions, e.g. x/4 + 3 = 7

Higher Tier covers
• Brackets on both sides
• Equations with fractions, e.g. (a − 3)/4 = 5 and y/2 + y/3 = 10
• Equations with algebraic fractions
• An extension into solving quadratics by factorising

Use it for revision, homework, intervention groups, cover lessons or independent practice. Suitable for AQA, Edexcel and OCR GCSE (9–1) Maths. Print-ready PDFs.
