What objectives set c means

You practise answering short BECE-style maths questions quickly and accurately. This helps you build speed, confidence, and careful working for exam revision.

What you will practise

  • Work out simple percentages of whole numbers.
  • Round whole numbers to a given place value.
  • Choose the correct answer from objective options.

Before you start

You should already know basic fraction parts, common percentage ideas, and place value up to thousands. It also helps to read numbers and instructions carefully.

Worked example

One question from this skill's own question bank, shown with its full working.

Question

Simplify 2/5 + 1/5.

  • 1/5
  • 2/5
  • 3/5
  • 3/10
Answer: 3/5

Working: Same denominator: 2/5 + 1/5 = 3/5.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Adding the top numbers and bottom numbers together in fractions. Keep the denominator the same.
  • Using the wrong fraction or percentage rule. Check the question before you calculate.
  • Rounding to the nearest ten when the question asks for the nearest hundred. Read the place value carefully.
  • Rushing the final answer and missing simple steps. Check your working before you choose.
