Sample 1 Elapsed time

A student left home at 8:35 am and returned at 4:45 pm. How long were they away from home?

A 8 hours 10 minutes

B 7 hours 50 minutes

C 4 hours 10 minutes

D 13 hours 20 minutes

Show worked answer

Answer: A. 8 hours 10 minutes

Count the hours and minutes from 8:35 am to 4:45 pm. The total is 8 hours 10 minutes.

Sample 2 Probability

The spinner is shown. A player wins if the arrow lands on a blue section. What is the probability of winning on the next spin?

A 1/4

B 1/2

C 1/3

D 1/8

Show worked answer

Answer: A. 1/4

There are 8 equal sections and 2 are blue. Probability = 2/8 = 1/4.

Sample 3 Perimeter

A larger shape is made from tiles with equal side lengths of 3.5 cm. The larger shape has 16 outside sides. What is its perimeter?

A 56 cm

B 42 cm

C 49 cm

D 70 cm

Show worked answer

Answer: A. 56 cm

Perimeter = number of outside sides × side length = 16 × 3.5 = 56 cm.

Sample 4 Ratios and rates

A plan increases exercise time steadily: 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 67.5 minutes. Which statement is true?

A 1.5 times longer than the previous day

B 10 times longer than the previous day

C 10 minutes longer than the previous day

D 1.5 minutes longer than the previous day

Show worked answer

Answer: A. 1.5 times longer than the previous day

Each term is multiplied by 1.5 to get the next term.

Sample 5 Mean and data

The numbers are 17, 22, 17, 24, 20. What is the mean?

A 20

B 21

C 17

D 100

Show worked answer

Answer: A. 20

Add the numbers to get 100 and divide by 5. The mean is 20.

Sample 6 Angles

The diagram shows a right angle and a 45° angle on a straight line. What is the size of angle x?

Show worked answer

Answer: 135

Angles on a straight line add to 180°. So x = 180° − 45° = 135°.

Common mistakes

What to watch for

Adding ratio parts without checking the scaling factor.

Using total values incorrectly when calculating probability.

Forgetting square units in area answers.

Writing expressions in the wrong order from worded algebra prompts.
