You practise short Core Maths questions that check basic algebra, sequences, and straight line ideas. This helps you answer objective items quickly and avoid losing marks on simple steps.
You should be comfortable with basic arithmetic, using brackets, and simple number patterns. It also helps to know ordered pairs and how to subtract fractions or whole numbers accurately.

One question from this skill's own question bank, shown with its full working.
Solve for x: 5x − 2 = 3x + 8.
Working: 5x − 3x = 8 + 2, so 2x = 10 and x = 5.
This kind of practice usually comes in the SHS Core Maths work on algebra, sequences, and coordinate geometry. It supports preparation for WASSCE objective questions by building speed and accuracy with standard question forms.
Curriculum notes are a general guide to where this work normally sits. Always check the syllabus your school or examination body is currently using.
