Sample questions

Question 1 — Easy

Anika is organising a community fun run to raise money for a local wildlife sanctuary. She has 28 teams, and each team raises $346. The sanctuary needs at least $9,500 to cover its annual costs. Which statement is correct?

A) The total raised is $9,688, which is enough — the product exceeds $9,500 by $188.
B) The total raised is $9,288, which is not enough — the product is $212 short of $9,500.
C) The total raised is $9,688, which is not enough — the product is less than $9,500.
D) The total raised is $9,800, which is enough — the product exceeds $9,500 by $300.

Answer: Option A is correct — 28 × $346 = $9,688, which is greater than $9,500, so the sanctuary has enough funding with $188 to spare. Option B incorrectly calculates the product as $9,288, likely from a place value error in the multiplication. Option C states the correct product of $9,688 but incorrectly judges it as insufficient, showing a comparison error.

Question 2 — Medium

Mei's family fruit shop sells 64 boxes of mangoes each week. Each box contains 36 mangoes. The shop has a storage room that holds 2,500 mangoes. Is the storage room large enough to hold one full week's stock? Calculate the total to justify your answer.

A) The product is 2,304 mangoes, so the storage room is large enough.
B) The product is 2,304 mangoes, so the storage room is not large enough.
C) The product is 2,404 mangoes, so the storage room is not large enough.
D) The product is 2,240 mangoes, so the storage room is large enough.

Answer: Option A is correct — 64 × 36 = 2,304. Since 2,304 is less than 2,500, the storage room is large enough. Option B reaches the wrong conclusion using the correct product. Options C and D contain arithmetic errors in the multiplication.

Question 3 — Hard

A school in Townsville has 480 students. Three-eighths of the students are in junior school and the rest are in senior school. How many students are in senior school?

A) 180
B) 300
C) 290
D) 320

Answer: Junior school students = 3/8 × 480 = 180. Senior school = 480 − 180 = 300.
