  1. Question 1

    Round 436 406 to the nearest ten thousand.

    • 440 000
    • 400 000
    • 436 000
    • 430 000
    Show answer

    440 000

    Hint: Look at the digit just to the right of the ten thousands place. If it is 5 or more, round up; if it is less than 5, round down. Then every place to the right becomes 0.

  2. Question 2

    A school wants to collect 50 000 cans of food. Grade 4 collected 14 756 and Grade 5 collected 16 126. How many more cans do they need?

    • 20 118
    • 33 874
    • 19 118
    • 30 882
    Show answer

    19 118

    Hint: This takes two steps. First add the two amounts collected. Then subtract that total from the goal.

  3. Question 3

    Which product is the greatest?

    • 59 × 15
    • 59 × 31
    • 27 × 23
    • 13 × 21
    Show answer

    59 × 31

    Hint: Estimate each product with friendly numbers. If two estimates are close, work those out exactly.

  4. Question 4

    Which is the best estimate for 923 ÷ 6?

    • 15
    • 300
    • 150
    • 1500
    Show answer

    150

    Hint: Change 923 to a nearby number that divides easily by 6, like 900. Then divide the friendly number.

  5. Question 5

    Which fraction is greater than 1/2?

    • 1/7
    • 2/12
    • 7/11
    • 3/6
    Show answer

    7/11

    Hint: A fraction is greater than 1/2 when its numerator is more than half of its denominator. Exactly half means it equals 1/2.

  6. Question 6

    Write 1/100 as a decimal.

    1/100 = ?

    answer box

    Show answer

    0.01

    Hint: The denominator tells you the last place: 10 → tenths, 100 → hundredths, 1000 → thousandths. Use zeros to fill any empty places.

  7. Question 7

    Solve for a.

    a × 4 = 48

    answer box

    Show answer

    12

    Hint: Think: 4 times what number makes 48? Divide 48 by 4 to undo the multiplying.

  8. Question 8

    Two rectangles have the same perimeter. Must they have the same area?

    • Yes, always.
    • No, their areas can be different.
    • Yes, if they are rectangles.
    • Only if they are both red.
    Show answer

    No, their areas can be different.

    Hint: Try two rectangles with a perimeter of 20 m: 9 m by 1 m and 5 m by 5 m. Find both areas.

  9. Question 9

    How many edges does a pentagonal pyramid have?

    answer box

    Show answer

    10

    Hint: Count the edges around the base, then add one edge from each base corner up to the apex.

  10. Question 10

    You pick one marble from this bag without looking. What is the probability that it is blue?

    🔴🟢🟢🟢🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵
    • 6/11
    • 6/4
    • 6/10
    • 4/10
    Show answer

    6/10

    Hint: Probability = number of blue marbles ÷ total number of marbles.
