All learners can and will do well if they apply themselves. It is a lot easier than Mathematics, but we use a lot of Mathematical terminology in Mathematical Literacy. It does not mean that they don\’t have to work hard at the subject, here they can score well and receive a bachelors pass. GRADE 10
