Diagnostic tasks

Below is the full list of tasks with correct answers and explanations. In a lesson the tutor can hide the answers and reveal them after the student tries.

3,425
3,045
3,245
3,402
Explanation: 3,000 + 400 + 20 + 5 = 3,425? Wait carefully: 400 + 20 + 5 = 425, so the number is 3,425.
2
A shop sells pencils in packs of 6. How many packs are needed to buy 42 pencils?
6
7
8
9
Explanation: 42 ÷ 6 = 7, so 7 packs are needed.
3
Which of these numbers are multiples of 9?
18
27
32
45
Explanation: 18, 27, and 45 are divisible by 9 with no remainder.
4
What is 3/4 of 20?
10
12
15
18
Explanation: 1/4 of 20 is 5, so 3/4 of 20 is 15? Check carefully: 5 × 3 = 15. Therefore the correct answer is 15.
5
A rectangle has a length of 8 cm and a width of 5 cm. What is its perimeter?
13 cm
26 cm
40 cm
20 cm
Explanation: Perimeter = 2 × (8 + 5) = 2 × 13 = 26 cm.
6
Which statements are true?
0.5 is the same as 1/2
0.25 is greater than 1/2
3/10 is the same as 0.3
0.75 is the same as 3/4
Explanation: 0.5 = 1/2, 0.3 = 3/10, and 0.75 = 3/4.
7
A bag has red and blue marbles in the ratio 2:3. If there are 15 marbles altogether, how many are red?
5
6
9
10
Explanation: The ratio has 5 equal parts in total. 15 ÷ 5 = 3 per part, and red is 2 parts: 2 × 3 = 6? Recheck: 2:3 means red is 2 parts, blue is 3 parts, total 5 parts. 15 ÷ 5 = 3, so red = 2 × 3 = 6.
8

Each box has 8 cans
48 ÷ 6 = 8

22
23
24
25
Explanation: The pattern increases by 5 each time, so 19 + 5 = 24? Check the sequence carefully: 4, 9, 14, 19, 24. The correct answer is 24.

Frequently asked questions

A diagnostic helps the tutor see the child's real level in 30–40 minutes: which topics are mastered and where the gaps are. Based on the result, the teacher builds an individual plan instead of working blind.

Yes, you can view all tasks and answers on this page. But the diagnostic is most useful in a lesson with a tutor who explains mistakes right away and adjusts the plan.

Roughly 30–40 minutes depending on the number of tasks and the child's pace. It is a full first lesson.
