Worked practice questions

Piece A is 6 cm long. How many squares of side 1 cm fit along its length?

  1. Six
  2. Two
  3. Ten
  4. Five
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Six

1. Each square has a side of 1 cm. 2. The length of piece A is 6 cm. 3. So 6 squares of side 1 cm can be arranged along its length. _Source: syllabus Mathematics, 'Math-Magic', Ch 11 'Area and its Boundary'_

Piece A is 5 cm wide. How many such squares fit along its width?

  1. Eight
  2. Five
  3. Nine
  4. Seven
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Five

1. Each square is 1 cm on a side. 2. The width of piece A is 5 cm. 3. So 5 squares can be arranged along its width. _Source: syllabus Mathematics, 'Math-Magic', Ch 11 'Area and its Boundary'_

Rather than counting every square, the quicker way is to:

  1. Duplicate
  2. Multiply
  3. Subtract
  4. Estimate
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Multiply

1. Counting all the squares one by one takes a long time. 2. The number along the length times the number along the width gives the total. 3. So you should just multiply. _Source: syllabus Mathematics, 'Math-Magic', Ch 11 'Area and its Boundary'_
