Today we celebrate National Numeracy Day! The aim of National Numeracy Day is to build people’s confidence in numeracy, no matter their age.
In order to help students practise their numeracy skills, our Lead Mathematics Tutor Vivek has compiled a set of questions to challenge your mathematical knowledge.
1. Calculate 8% of 25
2. Difference between the sum of all the evens and odds between 1 and 100
3. 10! divided by 8!
4. 14*11=22*___
5. (13*97)*39
6. Product of all the integers between -5 and 5
7. What is the first number above 6000 this is divisible by 36?
8. Two numbers have a HCF of 12 and a LCM of 540. Given that one of the numbers is 60, find the value of the other number?
9. Vivek writes down all the whole numbers between 1 and 100. How many times does he write the number 6?
10. If 1/3 = 0.3 recurring, then 3/3 = 0.9 recurring. But 3/3=1. Discuss?
We hope that you enjoy National Numeracy Day!
