Edexcel maths GCSE question misread

In the recent Edexcel maths paper I misread the names for the ratio leading to a complete wrong answer. How much will I get penalised (for GCSE btw)

could be 1 or 2 marks, you're cooked if you made a mistake in the beginning as they only condemn if the working out was somewhat correct. Just try to claim back those marks in Paper 3

My working out was correct but my answer got messed up for confusing the two names
