EQAO Math 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: A rectangle has a length of 12 cm and a width of 7 cm. What is its perimeter?
- 38 cm (Correct answer)
- 84 cm
- 19 cm
- 76 cm
Correct answer: 38 cm
Perimeter = 2 × (length + width) = 2 × (12 + 7) = 2 × 19 = 38 cm.
Question 2: Which fraction is equivalent to 0.75?
- 3/4 (Correct answer)
- 7/5
- 3/5
- 7/4
Correct answer: 3/4
0.75 = 75/100 = 3/4 when simplified by dividing numerator and denominator by 25.
Question 3: A pattern rule is: start at 4, multiply by 3 each time. What is the 4th term?
- 108 (Correct answer)
- 36
- 324
- 12
Correct answer: 108
The terms are 4, 12, 36, 108 — multiply each term by 3 to get the next.
Question 4: A bag contains 3 red marbles, 5 blue marbles, and 2 green marbles. What is the probability of picking a blue marble?
- 1/2 (Correct answer)
- 1/3
- 3/10
- 2/5
Correct answer: 1/2
There are 5 blue out of 10 total marbles, so probability = 5/10 = 1/2.
Question 5: What is the area of a triangle with base 10 m and height 6 m?
- 30 m² (Correct answer)
- 60 m²
- 16 m²
- 120 m²
Correct answer: 30 m²
Area of a triangle = (base × height) ÷ 2 = (10 × 6) ÷ 2 = 30 m².
Question 6: Solve for x: 3x + 9 = 30
- x = 7 (Correct answer)
- x = 13
- x = 9
- x = 3
Correct answer: x = 7
Subtract 9 from both sides to get 3x = 21, then divide by 3 to get x = 7.
Question 7: A store sells 144 apples in 6 equal boxes. How many apples are in each box?
- 24 (Correct answer)
- 20
- 28
- 18
Correct answer: 24
Divide 144 by 6 to get 24 apples per box.
