I tried this in university. I knew the right answer but not how to get it, so I made a "mistake" in the calcs. It was circled with "something's not right". No marks.
We had a formula once that you could aproach from two ways. So I went backwards once I couldn't figure out how to continue. In the end I still didn't know how to get from x to y but this was a small enough step the corrector would know surely.
