What an assessment for FSKNUM021 must cover
26 assessable components: 3 elements (8 performance criteria), 8 performance evidence and 9 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 1 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.
Elements & performance criteria
1 Extract and interpret a range of mathematical information
- 1.1Extract a range of mathematical information embedded in workplace tasks and texts
- 1.2Interpret a range of mathematical information embedded in workplace tasks and texts
2 Apply and use mathematical calculations involving multiple steps to complete workplace task
- 2.1Select and use a range of mathematical problem solving strategies to undertake workplace task
- 2.2Estimate outcome of calculations related to fractions, decimals, percentages, simple powers, common roots and positive and negative numbers to complete workplace task
- 2.3Perform calculations with fractions, decimals, percentages, simple powers, common roots and positive and negative numbers to complete workplace task
- 2.4Check and reflect on mathematical problem solving processes and outcomes in relation to initial estimates and the workplace context
3 Communicate workplace mathematical information

- 3.2Use formal, informal and some specialised language to discuss and explain workplace calculation processes, results and implications
Performance evidence
- perform multi-step mathematical problem solving processes to complete a complex workplace task including:
- performing multi-step calculations with relevant positive and negative numbers using the four operations, including:
- fractions, decimals and percentages
- powers and roots
- positive and negative numbers
- making estimations to check problem solving outcomes of above calculations and determine appropriate accuracy required for task
- evaluating mathematical processes used and outcomes obtained, and evaluating implications for workplace task.
- In the course of the above the candidate must demonstrate use of relevant technology, such as calculators or spreadsheets.
Knowledge evidence
- problem solving processes to solve workplace mathematical problems
- equivalent value of fractions, decimals and percentages
- powers and roots, and the relationship between powers and roots
- workplace application of negative numbers
- order of operations and use of brackets and parentheses
- estimation and assessment processes
- implications of calculations and results for workplace tasks
- specialised, formal and informal mathematical written and oral language and symbolism relevant to workplace calculations
- relevant technology, such as calculators or spreadsheets.
Foundation skills
- Technology: Uses a scientific calculator

Questions about assessing FSKNUM021
What does an assessment tool for FSKNUM021 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for FSKNUM021 needs to address all 26 unit components: 3 elements with 8 performance criteria, 8 performance evidence requirements, 9 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.
How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for FSKNUM021?
Auditori pulls the current release of FSKNUM021 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.
Is the first assessment tool really free?
Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for FSKNUM021 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing FSKNUM021 assessment instead of generating a new one?
Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of FSKNUM021, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
