1.1 Arithmetic

Arithmetic Terms and Signs
Easy

Which of the following is a perfect square number: 12, 45, 81?

A12
B45
C81
HintA perfect square is a whole number times itself (1, 4, 9, 16, 25, …).

Answer: 81 = 9 x 9, so it is a perfect square. The others are not the product of an integer multiplied by itself.

Multiplication Division
Easy

Calculate (-5) ÷ (-6).

A-0.83
B0.83
C1.83
HintWatch the signs: two negatives multiply or divide to a positive.

Answer: Two like signs give a positive result: (-5) ÷ (-6) = 0.83.

Fractions and Decimals
Medium

What is ⁵⁄₆ - ¹⁄₂?

A⁶⁄₈
B²⁄₃
C¹⁄₃
HintPut the fractions over a common denominator before adding or subtracting.

Answer: Convert to a common denominator of 6: ⁵⁄₆ = ⁵⁄₆ and ¹⁄₂ = ³⁄₆. Subtracting gives ²⁄₆, which simplifies to ¹⁄₃.

Weights Measures and Conversions
Medium

Using 1 ft = 0.3048 m, convert 35 ft to m.

A10.67 m
B106.68 m
C35 m
HintMultiply by the given conversion factor, checking which way it goes.

Answer: 35 x 0.3048 = 10.67 m.

Ratio and Proportion
Hard

A quantity of 56 is divided in the ratio 1:2:4. What is the middle share?

A16
B32
C8
HintAdd the parts to get the total shares, then find the value of one share.

Answer: The parts add up to 1 + 2 + 4 = 7, so each part = 56 / 7 = 8. The middle share is the middle number in the ratio: 2 x 8 = 16.

Percentages
Hard

20% of a quantity is 18. What is the full quantity?

A90
B45
C18
HintPer cent means ÷100; multiply the amount by the percentage as a decimal.

Answer: If 20% = 18, then 1% = 0.9, so 100% = 0.9 x 100 = 90.

1.2 Algebra

Algebraic Expressions
Easy

Simplify: 9x + 8x + 6

A17x + 7
B17x + 6
C72x + 6
HintCollect like terms (same letter and power).

Answer: Combine the like terms (the x terms): 9x + 8x = 17x. The constant 6 has no like term, so the answer is 17x + 6.

Linear Equations
Easy

Solve for x: 4x + 18 = 30

A4
B2
C3
HintExpand brackets, gather the x terms on one side, then divide.

Answer: Subtract 18 from both sides: 4x = 12. Divide by 4: x = 3.

Algebraic Fractions
Medium

Simplify: 2x/2 + 8x/2

A5x
B10x/2
C2x + 8x/2
HintAdd the numerators over their shared denominator, then simplify.

Answer: Since both fractions already share the denominator 2, add the numerators: 2x + 8x = 10x, giving 10x/2, which simplifies further to 5x.

Indices and Powers
Medium

Simplify: (2⁴)³

A2⁷
B16⁴
C2¹²
HintA power raised to a power: multiply the indices.

Answer: When raising a power to a power, multiply the indices: 4 x 3 = 12, giving 2¹².

Simultaneous Equations
Hard

Solve: y = 3x + 6 and 3x + y = 30. What is x?

A3
B5
C4
HintEliminate one unknown by adding/subtracting the equations, or substitute one into the other.

Answer: Substitute y = 3x + 6 into the second equation: 3x + 3x + 6 = 30, so 6x = 24, giving x = 4.

Second Degree Equations
Hard

What are the two solutions of x² - 7x + 12 = 0?

Ax = 4 and x = 4
Bx = 3 and x = 4
Cx = -3 and x = -4
HintFactorise into two brackets, then set each equal to zero.

Answer: Factorise: (x - 3)(x - 4) = 0, so x = 3 or x = 4.

1.3 Geometry & trigonometry

Angles and Polygons
Easy

Two angles lie on a straight line. One is 45°. What is the other?

A180°
B45°
C135°
HintAngles on a straight line add to 180°.

Answer: Angles on a straight line add up to 180°, so the other angle is 180 - 45 = 135°.

Graphs of Functions
Easy

For the line y = -3x - 4, what is the gradient?

A-4
B-2
C-3
HintIn y = mx + c, m is the gradient.

Answer: In the form y = mx + c, m is the gradient, so the gradient is -3.

Coordinate Geometry
Medium

A line has equation y = -4x + 0. What is y when x = -2?

A4
B9
C8
HintSubstitute the x-value into the equation.

Answer: Substitute x = -2: y = -4 x -2 + 0 = 8 + 0 = 8.

Angles and Polygons
Medium

What is the size of each exterior angle of a regular polygon with 12 sides?

A35°
B30°
C25°
HintExterior angles of any polygon add to 360°.

Answer: The exterior angles of a regular polygon sum to 360° and are all equal: 360 ÷ 12 = 30°.

Trigonometry Ratios
Hard

A right-angled triangle has a hypotenuse of 10 cm and one angle of 60°. What is the length of the side opposite the 60 degree angle?

A9.66 cm
B5 cm
C8.66 cm
HintUse SOH-CAH-TOA to choose sin, cos or tan.

Answer: Opposite = hypotenuse x sin(angle) = 10 x sin(60) = 10 x 0.866 = 8.66 cm.

Pythagoras
Hard

A triangle has sides of 8 cm, 15 cm and 20 cm. Is this a right-angled triangle?

AYes, it is right-angled
BCannot be determined without an angle
CNo, it is not right-angled
HintIt's right-angled if a² + b² = c² for the longest side c.

Answer: Check whether the two shorter sides squared add up to the longest side squared: 8² + 15² = 289, compared to 20² = 400. They don't match, so it is not right-angled.
