5 sample Mathematics questions
Answer each one, then tap “Show answer” to check.
- Question 1 · Fractions · Objees practice question
Simplify: 3/4 + 2/3
- A 5/7
- B 1 5/12
- C 1 1/12
- D 5/12
Show answerHide answer
B 1 5/12
Use the LCM of 4 and 3, which is 12: 9/12 + 8/12 = 17/12 = 1 5/12.
- Question 2 · Linear equations · Objees practice question
Solve for x: 3x − 7 = 11
- A 6
- B 4/3
- C 18
- D 3
Show answerHide answer
A 6
Add 7 to both sides: 3x = 18. Divide both sides by 3: x = 6.
- Question 3 · Percentages · Objees practice question
A trader bought an item for GH₵ 80 and sold it for GH₵ 100. What was the percentage profit?
- A 20%
- B 80%
- C 25%
- D 125%
Show answerHide answer
C 25%
Profit = 100 − 80 = GH₵ 20. Percentage profit = 20 ÷ 80 × 100% = 25%. Always divide by the cost price.
- Question 4 · Mensuration · Objees practice question
Find the area of a rectangle which is 12 cm long and 7 cm wide.
- A 38 cm²
- B 19 cm²
- C 72 cm²
- D 84 cm²
Show answerHide answer
D 84 cm²
Area of a rectangle = length × width = 12 × 7 = 84 cm². (38 cm is the perimeter.)
- Question 5 · Sets · Objees practice question
If A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and B = {2, 4, 6}, find A ∩ B.
- A {2, 4}
- B {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
- C {6}
- D {1, 3, 5}
Show answerHide answer
A {2, 4}
A ∩ B (A intersection B) contains only the elements found in both sets: 2 and 4.
