Sample questions

Question 1Easy

Tom scored 8.9 points in a school maths competition. Which score is between 8.9 and 9.0?

A) 8.19
B) 8.09
C) 9.01
D) 8.95

Answer: 8.95 is greater than 8.9 and less than 9.0, so it sits between the two values. 8.19 and 8.09 are both less than 8.9, and 9.01 is greater than 9.0.

Question 2Medium

The number line goes from 0 to 10 000 with major marks every 2 000. What is the value of point P?

0) 500
1) 1 000
2) 1 500
3) 2 000

Answer: Point P sits halfway between 0 and 2 000. Halfway = (0 + 2 000) ÷ 2 = 1 000.

Question 3Hard

The number line goes from 0 to 10 000 with major marks every 2 000. What is the value of point S?

0) 8 000
1) 8 500
2) 9 000
3) 9 500

Answer: Point S sits halfway between 8 000 and 10 000. Halfway = (8 000 + 10 000) ÷ 2 = 9 000.
