total=36 squares
4. According to the
pattern, which
number should be filled into
the blank?
12, 15, 19, 24, _____, 37, 45
Answer: 30
Solution: The pattern is that each
term is generated by increasing the
previous term by a value that starts
at 3 and increases by 1 with each
step.
5. By observing the pattern, from
left to right, what is the next letter?
OUHOUHHOUHHHOU____
Answer: H
Solution:
OUHOUHHOUHHHOUHHHH
The pattern follows a repetition of the
sequence "OUH" with an additional
"H" added after each repetition.
Based on this pattern, the next letter
would be "H."
6. Find the value of 3 × 4 + 4 × 9 - 3 ×

5.
Answer: 33
Solution:
3 × 4 = 12
4 × 9 = 36
3 × 5 = 15
12 + 36 - 15
12 + 36 = 48
48 - 15 = 33
7. By observing the equation, it is
known that”?” is a 1-digit number,
find the minimum number
represented by “?”.
Answer: 2
Solution:
8 × ? = 20 - 4
8 × ? = 16
? = 16 / 8
?=2
8. Find the value of 16 + 40 + 29

+ 55+ 23.
Answer: 163
Solution:
16 + 40 = 56
56 + 29 = 85
85 + 55 = 140
140 + 23 = 163
9. Refer to the figure below, at least
how many cube(s) is/ are there?
Answer: 11
Solution: By counting the number of
cubes.
10. How many 2-digit numbers are

there from 2 and 45? (Include both
end numbers)
Answer:
36
Solution:
First 2-digit number from 2
is 10. 45-10= 35
35+1= 36
Add 1 since end numbers are
included but only 45 is the 2-digit
number.
SECTION B
11. Refer to the figure below, how
many line segment(s) is/are there?
Answer: 9
Solution: By counting the line
segments.
12. A 2-digit number is divided by 6 to

get a remainder of 3. Find the
maximum value of this 2-digit
number.
Answer:
99
Solution:
2-digit number = 6 × quotient
+ 3 99 = 6 × quotient + 3
Subtract 3 from both sides:
96 = 6 × quotient
Now, divide by 6 to find the value
of the quotient:
quotient = 96÷6
quotient = 16
So, the maximum 2-digit number
that, when divided by 6, leaves a
remainder of 3, is 6×16 + 3, which
is 99.
13. Find the value of 128-157+146-

115+204-116+111-131+240.
Answer: 310
Solution:
= (128+146+204+111+240)-
(157+115+116+131)
= (829)-(519)
= 310
14. Refer to the puzzle, find the value
of A+B+C.
Answer: 11
Solution:
15. A bus can travel 120 km in 2
hours. If the distance between City A
and City B is 600 km, how many
hours will it take the bus to reach
City B from City A?
Answer: 10
Solution:
120km = 2hrs
60km = 1hr
600km/ 60km =10
With 600km distance, it will take
the bus 10 hours to reach City B
from City A.
16. There are 10 farmers. Now, we

separate them into 2 groups and each
group must select a leader. How
many different combinations are
there?
Answer: 6300
Solution:
10C5 means choosing 5 items from
10
5C1 means choosing 1 item from 5
5C5 means choosing 5 items from
5
10C5=10! / (5! × (10-5)!) = 252
5C1 = 5! / (1! × (5-1)!) = 5
5C5 = 5! / (5! × (5-5)!) = 1.
10C5×5C1×5C5×5C1
=252×5×1×5
= 6300
17. A cat has the same weight as 5

mice. A dog has the same weight as 3
cats. How many mice do we need to
have a weight equivalent to 5 dogs?
Answer: 75
Solution:
1 mouse = 1/5 of a cat or 1 cat = 5
mice
1 cat = 1/3 of a dog or 1 dog = 3
cats
So, 5 dogs = 15 cats
And, 15 cats = 75 mice
18. Refer to the following sequence.

Find the value of A+B.
4,3,12,5,4,20,6,5,30,7, A, B
Answer: 48
Solution:
Pattern 1: [(4,3), (5,4), (6,5)];
increasing.
number by 1
Pattern2: (12, 20, 30) product of
pattern 1
A=6
B = 42 (product of
7×6) A+B
6+42=48
19. According to the pattern shown

below, how many * is/ are there in
the 6th figure?
Answer:
Solution: Figure 5,6
20. Find the value of 2 × 1 + 4 × 6 + 3
× 9 + 8 × 11 + 1 × 15 + 2 × 18 + 5 ×
19.
Answer: 287
Solution:
2×1=2
4 × 6 = 24
3 × 9 = 27
8 × 11 = 88
1 × 15 = 15
2 × 18 = 36
5 × 19 = 95
2 + 24 + 27 + 88 + 15 + 36 + 95 =
287
SECTION C
21. A box can put at most 9 ribbons
into it. Now we have 8 little girls, and
each child needs to have 7 ribbons.
What is the minimum number of
box(es) do we need?
Answer:
7
Solution
:
Calculate the total number of
ribbons
needed for all the girls and then
divide it by the maximum number
of ribbons a single box can hold.
Total ribbons needed for 8 girls =

8 girls * 7 ribbons/girl = 56
ribbons
Calculate the number of boxes

needed:
Number of boxes needed = (Total

ribbons needed) / (Ribbons per
box)
Number of boxes needed = 56
ribbons / 9 ribbons/box
To find the minimum number of
boxes, we need to round up to
ensure that we have enough boxes
to hold all the ribbons.
So, the minimum number of boxes
needed is:
Number of boxes needed = (56

ribbons / 9 ribbons/box) = 6.2222
6 × 9 is only 54, so we should
increase to 7, 7 × 9 = 63
22. Refer to the figure below, at least

how many matches need to be
removed to reduce the square into 3?
Answer: 2
Solution:
23. By observing the balance, how
many box(es) P is/ are needed to be
placed on the right side to establish
the last balance?
Answer: 6
Solution
P = 1P
Q = 2P
R = 1P+1Q = 1P+2P
24. Refer to the figure below.
Determine the value of A + B + C.
Answer: 54
Solution:
A + B+ C = 12+ 18 + 24
25. Students are assigned a number
from 1 to 30 and were given 1 cookie
each. An additional 2 cookies will be
given if the assigned number is a
multiple of 4. How many cookies
were given in total?
Answer: 44
Solution:
Initially, there were 30 cookies.
There are 30/4 = 7 multiples of 4
from 1 to 30 (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24,
28).
Each of these 7 students will
receive 2 additional cookies.
So, the total number of additional
cookies given is 7 × 2 = 14.
30 (initial cookies) + 14 (additional

cookies) = 44 cookies.
