Sample NECO SSCE Mathematics 2007 questions

1. In a class of 40 pupils, 24 study French, 18 study Hausa and 7 study neither. How many study both languages?
  1. 9
  2. 11
  3. 12
  4. 16

Answer: A. 9

The number studying at least one is 40 - 7 = 33, so both = 24 + 18 - 33 = 9.

2. Express 101101_2 in base ten.
  1. 43
  2. 45
  3. 44
  4. 46

Answer: B. 45

101101_2 = 32 + 8 + 4 + 1 = 45 in base ten.

3. Evaluate 27^(2/3).
  1. 3
  2. 6
  3. 9
  4. 18

Answer: C. 9

The cube root of 27 is 3, and 3 squared is 9.

4. Given log10(2) = 0.3010 and log10(3) = 0.4771, find log10(12).
  1. 0.7781
  2. 1.2552
  3. 1.7781
  4. 1.0791

Answer: D. 1.0791

Since 12 = 3 x 4, log10(12) = log10(3) + 2log10(2) = 1.0791.

5. Simplify sqrt(75) - sqrt(12).
  1. 3sqrt(3)
  2. sqrt(3)
  3. 2sqrt(3)
  4. 5sqrt(3)

Answer: A. 3sqrt(3)

sqrt(75) - sqrt(12) = 5sqrt(3) - 2sqrt(3) = 3sqrt(3).
