  1. What is 4.7 × 100?

    Answer: 470

    Multiplying by 100 moves each digit two places to the left, so 4.7 becomes 470.

  2. A class of 28 pupils has 75% achieving the expected standard. How many pupils is that?

    Answer: 21

    75% of 28 = 0.75 × 28 = 21 pupils. Alternatively, 75% is three-quarters, and three-quarters of 28 is 21.

  3. What is the mean of the following test scores: 56, 72, 68, 84, 60?

    Answer: 68

    Sum = 56 + 72 + 68 + 84 + 60 = 340. Mean = 340 ÷ 5 = 68.

  4. Convert 3/8 to a decimal.

    Answer: 0.375

    3 ÷ 8 = 0.375. Alternatively, 1/8 = 0.125, so 3/8 = 3 × 0.125 = 0.375.

  5. A teacher records that 12 out of 30 pupils need additional support. What percentage is this?

    Answer: 40%

    12 ÷ 30 = 0.4, which is 40%. Alternatively, 12/30 simplifies to 2/5 = 40%.

  6. What is 15% of 240?

    Answer: 36

    10% of 240 = 24. 5% of 240 = 12. So 15% = 24 + 12 = 36.
