Full Grade 2 test

One euro is 100 cents. Add the values of the coins, then subtract the total from 100.

To find the total number of apples, add the amounts collected by both children.

Read the numbers in the text. The apple picture is only an illustration and does not show the exact amount.

A rectangle’s perimeter includes two lengths and two widths.

1. Divide the perimeter by 2 to get the sum of one length and one width.
2. Subtract the known side length from that sum.

For example, a perimeter of 20 cm and one side of 4 cm give the other side as 20 ÷ 2 − 4 = 6 cm. Check by adding all four sides.

All four sides of a square are equal. The perimeter is their total length.

To find one side length, divide the perimeter by 4. For example, a perimeter of 20 gives a side of 20 ÷ 4 = 5. Check by multiplying by 4.

Buying the book leaves less money. Subtract the price of the book from the amount of money available.

Check: the money left plus the book price must equal the starting amount. Use the numbers in the text.

Work through the addition and subtraction from left to right: first add the first two numbers, then subtract the third from the sum.

For example, 28 + 15 − 7 = 43 − 7 = 36.

This question is about converting units of mass. Look up the relationship between a centner and a kilogram in a mass conversion table. Do not confuse a centner with a tonne: they are different units. Expressing the same mass in a smaller unit requires a larger number.

A rectangle’s perimeter includes two lengths and two widths.

1. Divide the perimeter by 2 to get the sum of one length and one width.
2. Subtract the known side length from that sum.

For example, a perimeter of 20 cm and one side of 4 cm give the other side as 20 ÷ 2 − 4 = 6 cm. Check by adding all four sides.

Equal parts must have the same size. Compare the widths of the parts in each rectangle.

Apples are fruit, so they are not included in the number of vegetables.

1. The vegetables in this problem are the carrots and potatoes.
2. Add their quantities: 17 + 14.
3. The sum is the total number of vegetables harvested.

Count only cards with the specified letter. This count is its frequency.

Add the ones digits. Subtract ten from their sum: these are the ones left after exchanging ten ones for a ten. The question asks for the ones digit, not the full sum.

Kilometres and metres are units of length. One kilometre equals 1000 metres: 1 km = 1000 m.

Kilometres are useful for longer distances. Choose the number of metres.

Add the known frequencies and subtract their sum from the total votes.

Each pupil is counted in one category, so add all three category counts.

Split the second addend. Add enough to reach the next multiple of ten, then add the rest. Check that the two parts add up to the original addend.

Think about how many runners remain ahead. There are three runners in total: this runner and the two competitors.

If this runner has overtaken both competitors, neither is still ahead. The place depends on how many runners are in front.

Find how far the cell lies from the axis and choose the corresponding cell equally far on the opposite side.

Follow the outline and count each straight side once.

Work out the subtraction inside the brackets first.

Then multiply the difference by the number outside the brackets. For example, (9 − 6) × 4 = 3 × 4 = 12.

Find the specified column and row, then read the number at their intersection.

Moving left decreases the number. The first jump reaches a multiple of ten; the second moves further left. Subtract the size of the second jump from the intermediate number.

A full day includes daytime and night-time. It lasts 24 hours.

There are 12 hours from midnight to midday and another 12 to the next midnight: 12 + 12 = 24.

Every bag must contain the same number of sweets. Divide the total number of sweets by the number of bags.

For example, sharing 18 sweets into 3 bags gives 18 ÷ 3 = 6 in each. Check by multiplying the amount in one bag by the number of bags.

The apples are shared equally between the bags. Divide the total number of apples by the number of bags.

Check by multiplying: apples in one bag × number of bags = all the apples. Use the numbers in the text rather than counting the illustration.

A cube has six identical flat faces. Each has four equal sides and four right angles.

Kilograms and grams are units of mass. One kilogram equals 1000 grams: 1 kg = 1000 g.

Choose the number of grams. These are mass units, not length or time units.

The condition is false, so follow the action after “otherwise”.

Check the A, B and C bars of each chart. All three values must match.

An odd number of children leaves one child without a partner. An even number leaves none.

A last digit of 1, 3, 5, 7 or 9 means odd. Read the question carefully: it asks whether one child will be left without a pair.

A tonne is used for large masses. One metric tonne equals 1000 kilograms: 1 t = 1000 kg.

The question asks for kilograms, so choose the number of kilograms.

Look at the tens digit.

• If it is from 0 to 4, round to the lower hundred.
• If it is from 5 to 9, round to the higher hundred.

For example, 342 rounds to 300, while 367 rounds to 400. Put 0 in the tens and ones places; 950 rounds to 1000.

Multiplication is a quick way to add equal groups. The first number can show how many groups there are, and the second how many objects are in each group.

For example, 3 × 4 = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12. Use the times table or add the equal amounts.
