Is the son not supposed to have learnt this in school? What was he doing while his mates were learning it?
On social media?

How will the kid learn if Nairalanders keep solving his math problems for him?
How does this concern Nairalanders?
Why do Nigerians like nonsense?
receive sense the guy is going extra mile to prepare his son

It must be a typo error just like we have in the second attachment.

Why not use the latest edition, i believe it ll have less error

We have the newest edition....the person that pointed out the error used an older edition

help see if you can decode this questions.....thanks

I have gotten it, it just took me 2 minutes.


First and foremost, look for the side with the highest number.

For example 1.
Side 16 and side 4

so 164/2 = 82
The second side answer is 8, 2

For Example 2.

The side with the highest number is 6 and 2 which is 62.

so 62/2 = 31

the answer is 1,3


Example 3.
The highest side is 9,0 which is 90
so 90/2 =45
the anser is 4, 5

Hope you gat it.


, the highest number must go straight with the answer highest number.


in Example 1.

16 goes the way 8

4 goes the way 2 in the Z pattern.

bye.

Section A
The first two diagram multiply by 2 to get the right hand.

The third diagram
Subract 4 from the first line above to get 0, and add 4 to the line below to get 9.

The second one is multiplication in modulo 7.
5 o 2 = (5 * 2) / 7
= 10/7 = 1 Remainder 3
= 3 (mod 7)

One rule is supposed to be used to solve all the samples..

In this case, I don’t think so but with wat someone did up there, that could be a solution for u but I still stick with mine

JUST SAY YOU CAN'T ANSWER IT INSTEAD OF ALL THIS LAW FROM HELL YOU'RE QUOTING. ARE PARENTS NOT SUPPOSE TO ASSIST THEIR CHILDREN IN LEARNING. IF YOU KNOW ALL QUESTIONS AFTER YOU WERE TAUGHT A SUBJECT, YOU SHOULD BE IN HARVARD BY NOW.

LEAVE US MAKE WE CONTINUE TO CRACK OUR HEAD WITH THE PROBLEM AND FACE INEC.

Thanks for putting this on the front page and thanks to all who have contributed....really appreciate.....kindly help to decode this also......

This is not intractable unlike the first one you posted

The number in circle raised to the power of the number above it, then the result is multiplied with the next number
i.e 4 ** 2 = 16, 16 * 3 = 48
1 ** 2 = 1, 1 * 3 = 3
5 ** 1 = 5, 5 * 4 = 20.
lanre2009: 8:24pm On Feb 24, 2019
Thanks so much for this.....the solution worked for all the questions.....God bless you....

I may post more questions whenever we encounter the ones we cant handle.....once again thanks to everybody who has helped out.....cheers!

i think iv gotten the solution

modified.

you'll follow the letter "Z" either from the top to the bottom or vice versa starting from the smaller number to the bigger number. the 1st number + 2nd number + 3rd number would give you the last number.

And there are no errors in the questions.
Correct � U get am

If it is due to error in sample there would be answers to the proper questions in the options
sure, check two questions and try d method given.hopefully d answer myt b in d options.
bolrew: 8:39pm On Feb 24, 2019
Have gotten the answer...like number 3. U will continue adding 3 to the number, the last number there is 21 add 3+3 to get 27

Same thing goes to number 4. U will add 7 ... until u get 84
tunde705(m): 8:45pm On Feb 24, 2019
lanre2009:


Thanks....this actually worked ...I added '8' to the '2' in the first sample and we were able to solve all the questions....I really appreciate....
You are welcome. I have been coaching pupils with Ugo. C. Ugo for close to 20 years. I will be happy to help whenever the occasion calls for it.

There is a typo in the first one. The 3rd example is poorly typed. the questions. Let's see.

4/2=16/8

3/6=1/2
There is no typo o. Na so dem dey do am...
So u no dey see say quantitative apt of our own time don hard n advance for this present generation..

Lol. I get.Someone has confirmed that there is an error in this one though. I take common entrance pupils as well and sometimes, I see a lot senseless questions when an author is trying to form "tough qiestions".
Sometimes, each question will have it's own different approach. Sometimes, each example given will be totally different .
If the second question is actually a modulo arithmetic, then it is over syllabus. Modulo arithmetic is supposed to be taught in Jss1/jss2.

Can't see numbers 1&2 clearly.

Answers for 3&4 are:
3: (a)
4: (a)

That maths is logical reasoning. If you want I can assist you with the solutions. Also I can extend a private online class for him or atleast solve future problems for him.

The third question certainly may be wrong as the first two cohere......4*8=32.......32/2=16
3*3=6........6/6 =1

Add all the numbers to your left hand side and divide the sum by the number in the triangle.

so for the example 1 : 8+4+12 = 24 divided by 3 = 8
example 2 : 6+5+9 = 20 divided by 4 = 5

Ex 3 : 15+10+24 = 49 divided by 7 = 7

so for the question 33 : 4+12+2 = 18 divided by 6 = 3

Using simple logic, the upper figure increases by a multiple of 3 while the lower bar decreases by subtracting 2

or your question 37, subtracting 2 from 7 gives 5
