This section assesses students' deductive and quantitative reasoning and general quantitative sense and knowledge. Students are asked to compare two sets of number or number related expressions to determine if one is greater than, less than, or equal to the other.
Below is an example:
- Number comparison:
1. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
A
The comparisons also involve mathematical expressions, money, measurement, time, geometry and others. Below are more examples:
- Mathematical expression(1):
2. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
B
- Mathematical expression(2):
3. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
C
- Money(1):
4. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
(Note that 1 quarter = 25 cents and 1 dime = 10 cents).A
- Money(2):
5. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
I | 2 quarters. |
II | 10 nickels. |
(Note that 1 quarter = 5 nickels).C
- Time related(1):
6. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
A
- Time related(2):
7. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
B
- Time related(3):
8. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
A
- Measurement(1):
9. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
C
- Measurement(2):
10. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
I | 2 meters. |
II | 260 centimeters. |
(Note that 1 meter = 100 centimeters).B
- Measurement(3):
11. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
(Note that 1 gallon = 4 quarts).A
- Measurement(4):
12. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
(Note that 1 pint = 2 cups).C
- Measurement(4):
13. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
(Note that 1 pound = 16 ounces).A
- Geometry aspects(1):
14. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.

I | II |
B
- Others(1):
16. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
I | 2 dozen apples. |
II | 22 apples. |
(Note that 1 dozen = 12 ).A
- Others(2):
17. Compare the two things and decide if one is bigger than the other or if they are equal.
I | 4 cats + 6 ducks |
II | 2 cats + 10 ducks |
C
