  1. A Garda patrol covers 240 km in 4 hours. What is the average speed?

    Answer: 60 km/h

    Speed = Distance ÷ Time = 240 ÷ 4 = 60 km/h.

  2. If 15% of 200 recruits fail the fitness test, how many passed?

    Answer: 170

    15% of 200 = 30 fail. 200 − 30 = 170 pass.

  3. A station has 8 officers on day shift and 5 on night shift. What fraction are on night shift?

    Answer: 5/13

    Total officers = 8 + 5 = 13. Night shift fraction = 5/13.

  4. Crime reports increased from 400 to 460 in one month. What is the percentage increase?

    Answer: 15%

    Increase = 460 − 400 = 60. Percentage increase = (60 ÷ 400) × 100 = 15%.

  5. If a fine is €120 and is increased by 25%, what is the new fine?

    Answer: €150

    25% of €120 = €30. New fine = €120 + €30 = €150.

  6. A Garda works 8-hour shifts, 5 days a week. How many hours does she work in 4 weeks?

    Answer: 160

    Hours per week = 8 × 5 = 40. Over 4 weeks = 40 × 4 = 160 hours.
