    Default The Official MUFC Maths Workbook

    From The Official MUFC Maths Workbook, which covers sums for
    practising Key Stage Two maths for 7-11 year olds.
    This has been introduced as part of the Government's maths campaign.

    1. Roy is 78 yards away from the referee at Old Trafford and David
    is 65 yards away. If Roy can run at 21mph and David can run at
    16mph, who will be sticking their vein-bulging forehead into the
    hapless whistler's face first, assuming Roy does not stop to stamp on an opponent on his way.

    2. If one minute of time is taken up in a game for substitutions and one minute for injuries, how much injury time will be added on by the referee if Man Utd are losing at home?

    3. Ryan is a Welshman. Express, as a percentage, the number of
    internationals he has missed on a Wednesday evening
    compared to the miraculous recoveries he made for the following
    Saturday.

    4. Manchester United are one of the giants of world club football
    How many more European Cup Finals have they appeared in than Steaua Bucharest? (For one extra mark; How many more than Reims?)

    4a. How many more times have Manchester United won the European Cup than Nottingham Forest?

    5. Phil Neville has 30 international caps. If you take away the
    number of appearances when he was the only adult male in England who could just about kick the ball with his left foot, how many are left?

    6. You are the referee at Old Trafford. How near to a visiting
    defender does a tumbling United forward have to be to earn a penalty if he goes down in the box? (Note; Round your answers down to the nearest 20 yards.)

    6a. Probability. Express the statistical probability of visitors to
    Old Trafford being awarded a penalty. Compare this with the
    probability of opponents of Manchester United being awarded a
    penalty home or away, and then discuss if a penalty awarded to
    Manchester United would be awarded to their opponents in identical circumstances.

    7. Mark "The Red" lives in Guildford. How much does it cost for him
    and his two sons to travel to the Theatre of Silence every other
    weekend, including limited edition match day programme, a few drinks and prawn sandwiches all round? How much could he save per week if he watched his local team instead? (Note; round your answers down to the nearest thousand pounds).

    8. Alex had a hotel room booked in Glasgow for the Champions League Final. How much money will he lose when cancelling his reservation?

    9. Ruud is 6ft tall and very strong and fast. How much pressure need be applied to make him tumble over in the opponents' penalty area?
    (Note answers must be in lbs per square inch. However, answers such as however much pressure is applied by Ferguson to referees are accepted),

    10. Alex has won it 1 time, Bob has won it 4. Alex has one, Bob does not. What am talking about? Explain your answer (because nobody else can).

    11. Juan is a very lazy boy and often goes missing. Alex is very
    cross and wants to sell him. If Juan cost ?28m to buy, how much do you think Alex could sell him for? How many pennies will Alex lose?

    12. What is the total number of chickens counted before they were hatched by Manchester United and their supporters who thought Leverkeusen were a pushover?
