Cambridge Mathematics exam practice

Write your working. Get it marked like the real exam.

Solve each question by hand, on the screen or on paper. Every step gets marked the way the Cambridge mark scheme marks it, with method and accuracy marks, so you see exactly where the marks come from and where they slip away.

Question 7No calculator · [3]

Solve  5(x − 3) = 2x + 9

5x − 15 = 2x + 9 M1 (expand)
3x = 24 M1 (collect x terms)
x = 8 A1
x =8[3]

Watch out: multiply the 5 by both terms in the bracket, 5 × (−3) = −15.

Choose Exam season

Plan checks last 2 months. Checks you don't use this month move into next month, then expire at the end of it.

Run out mid-month? Top up

Top-ups are one-off payments on top of any plan. Choose any number of checks from 50 up. The more you buy, the lower the price per check. Top-up checks never expire: they stay on your account through every renewal, and your plan checks are used first.

Choose your own amount

Drag the slider or type any number of checks. On Exam season, every top-up is 7¢ per check.

About the site

What is Show My Working?

Show My Working is an online practice platform for Cambridge mathematics exams. Each course is split into short sprints of units and mock tests, mapped to the syllabus learning objectives.

You write your working the way you would in the exam, and AI marks every step against the mark scheme rules: method marks, accuracy marks and the notes an examiner would write. A tracker then shows which objectives are secure and which question to try next.

Questions

Frequently asked

Which courses are available?

Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics 0580, Extended tier, for examination from 2025 to 2027, covering all nine topics from Number to Statistics. More Cambridge courses are on the way and will appear in the course list as they open.

How does the AI marking work?

You write your working on the whiteboard or upload a photo of your paper. The AI reads each step and marks it against the worked solution and the mark scheme rules, with method marks for the right process and accuracy marks for the right answer. You always see the full solution too, so you can check every mark yourself.

What happens after the free month?

The Starter plan becomes $7 a month with 30 AI checks each month. You can switch to Regular or Exam season, add a top-up, or cancel any time before the offer ends and pay nothing.

Do unused checks expire?

Checks that come with your plan last 2 months: whatever you don't use this month moves into next month, then expires. Checks you buy as a top-up never expire and stay on your account through every renewal. The site always uses your plan checks first, the ones closest to expiring.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. The site works in any modern browser on a phone, tablet or laptop. A tablet with a stylus feels closest to writing on paper.

Is this an official Cambridge product?

No. Show My Working is an independent study site. The questions are written in the style of the Cambridge papers to help you prepare.

Your next mark is in your working.
