Timetables

A timetable shows when each bus, train, tram or ferry leaves or reaches every stop. This NSW Year 7 maths subtopic consolidates primary-school skills using Australian-style timetables written in 24-hour time.

You will follow one service down its column, find how long a trip takes by counting on, choose the next service or the latest one that arrives in time, work out the wait for a connection, and use a pattern to fill in missing times. Getting to school, the zoo or the beach by bus, train or ferry works this way. This subtopic is part of Year 7 Ratios, Rates and Time.
