20 questions on arithmetic test



Topics and sample problems for Math 017 Final Exam (long version)

| |

|Below there are 59 categories: |

|9 “arithmetic” categories |

|13 “easy algebra” categories |

|24 “basic algebra” categories |

|9 “difficult algebra” categories |

|4 “very difficult algebra” categories |

|Each version of the exam will be created as follows: |

|First, 45 categories will be selected: All 9 arithmetic categories will be included. From the algebraic categories, 8 categories will be |

|selected at random from 13 “easy” categories, all 24“basic algebra” categories will be represented, 3 out of the 9 “difficult” categories,|

|and 1 from the“very difficult” category. After this process, we will have 45 categories. One question out of each such category will be |

|selected at random. Thus, the test will consist of 45 questions. |
