Edutest Mathematics at Year 5 scholarship level covers fractions, decimals, measurement, geometry, and statistics in problem formats that require multi-step reasoning — a noticeable step up from school homework tasks. Students who perform well in class maths sometimes find scholarship test formats surprising because the questions are designed to differentiate at the very top end of Year 5 ability. Skillo's Edutest-style maths practice is free, no signup required, with feedback that builds the problem-solving habits scholarship selectors are looking for.

Question 1 — Easy
Which number is the smallest?
Answer: 19,457 is the smallest number because it has only 19 thousands, which is less than 20 or 21 or 23 thousands. All the other numbers are greater than 20,000, so they are all larger than 19,457.
Question 2 — Easy
These four towns have populations: Kofi's town has 12,560 people, Mia's town has 11,980 people, Anika's town has 12,005 people and Tom's town has 13,100 people. Which town's population is between 12,000 and 12,500?
Answer: Anika's town has 12,005 people, which is between 12,000 and 12,500. Kofi's town has 12,560, which is greater than 12,500. Mia's town has 11,980, which is less than 12,000. Tom's town has 13,100, which is greater than 12,500.
Question 3 — Easy
A school recycling drive collected 3,456 cans in Term 1 and 2,231 cans in Term 2. How many cans were collected in total?
Answer: Adding 3,456 and 2,231 gives 5,687. Add the ones (6 + 1 = 7), the tens (5 + 3 = 8), the hundreds (4 + 2 = 6), and the thousands (3 + 2 = 5), giving 5,687. Option A results from subtracting instead of adding (3,456 − 2,231 = 1,225). Option B results from a tens-column error where the student adds 5 + 3 as 7 instead of 8, giving 5,677. Option D results from a ones-column error where the student adds 6 + 1 as 7 correctly but carries an incorrect 1 into the tens column, computing 5 + 3 + 1 = 9 in the tens, giving 5,797.
How should my child prepare for Year 5 Edutest Mathematics?
- ✓Treat the time limit as a training tool — practise skipping hard questions and returning to them, which is legitimate test strategy.
- ✓Track which question types your child struggles with; spend extra time there rather than practising strengths.
- ✓When your child gets one wrong, ask them to explain why each other option was wrong — that elimination skill is what the test rewards.
- ✓Aim for 10–15 minutes a day rather than long weekend sessions — consistency builds recall better than cramming.
