Solved Mathematics sample Questions and Answers: below are our solved sample past questions to practice with before the exam.
1. Which of these numbers is not less than -2?
Solution Solving: -2 is greater than -2, -3, -4, -5, -6 and so on. But -1 is greater than -2.
The Correct Answer is A): Because it is greater than -2.
2. -6 is greater than -2 but less than -7? True or false
Solving for the solution: -6 is greater than any number from -7 to the negative infinity but less than any number from -5 to the positive infinity.
The Correct Answer is C): Because -6 is not greater than -2 and it is not less than -7.
3. Add 26b + 12a + 16a – 4b
Solution Solving for Questions 3: Firstly, you have to Collect like terms. Therefore, we have;
The Correct Answer is A): 22b + 28a
4. Multiply this equation: (x – 6)(2x + 7)?
Solving for question 4 solution: Here, we start by removing the bracket
Thus; 2×2 + 7x – 12x – 42
Hence, 2×2 – 5x – 42
The Correct Answer is B): 2×2 – 5x – 42
5. Factorise the following: 5×2 – 15x – 20?
Solution Solving to question 5: Firs find the L.C.M of 5, 15 and 20 = 5(x2 – 3x – 4).

The West African Examinations Council ( WAEC ) is an examination board established by law to determine the examinations required in the public interest in the English-speaking West African countries, to conduct the examinations and to award certificates comparable to those of equivalent examining authorities internationally.
It is similar to the Cameroon GCE Board or the Uganda National Examination Board ( UNEB ).
The WAEC was established in 1952 and has contributed to education in Anglophonic countries of West Africa (Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Liberia, and Gambia), with the number of examinations they have coordinated, and certificates they have issued.
They also formed an endowment fund, to contribute to education in West Africa, through lectures, and aid to those who cannot afford education .
The council conducts four different categories of examinations which are;
The International exams are exams taken in the five countries with the WAEC ordinance. It consists of WASSCE (West African Senior School Certificate Examination):
The National examinations are taken in individual countries. They include:
The council also coordinates examinations in collaboration with some trustworthy examination bodies. These include:
The council also conducts examination in West Africa on behalf of international examination bodies. These include:
There are two different types of the examination here:
Under the new WAEC Marking and Grading Scheme , the letters A to F are used to indicate how good a result is. Explanations: In other words, To get an A in WAEC Mathematics, you need to score above 75% in the Exam. 75% means you are able to get 75 questions correctly out of 100 questions.

The Chief Examiner reported that the standard of the paper was quite good and was well spread across the basic rudiments of the topics in the syllabus and in tandem with those of the previous years. The questions were clear, simple and direct, free from any form of ambiguity and were all the within the syllabus. The marking scheme was well prepared and well structured. It was in no way severe with marks and weighting appropriately distributed on the strength of the questions.
The Chief Examiner also reported that candidates performed tremendously well compared to previous years.
WAEC WASSCE [SSCE] SYLLABUS FOR GENERAL MATHEMATICS/MATHEMATICS (CORE)
The aims of the syllabus are to test candidates’:
This syllabus is not intended to be used as a teaching syllabus. Teachers are advised to use their own National teaching syllabuses or curricular for that purpose.
There will be two papers, Papers 1 and 2, both of which must be taken.
PAPER 1 : will consist of fifty multiple-choice objective questions, drawn from the common areas of the syllabus, to be answered in 1½ hours for 50 marks.
PAPER 2 : will consist of thirteen essay questions in two sections – Sections A and B , to be answered in 2½ hours for 100 marks. Candidates will be required to answer ten questions in all.
Section A – Will consist of five compulsory questions, elementary in nature carrying a total of 40 marks. The questions will be drawn from the common areas of the syllabus.
Section B – will consist of eight questions of greater length and difficulty. The questions shall include a maximum of two which shall be drawn from parts of the syllabuses which may not be peculiar to candidates’ home countries. Candidates will be expected to answer five questions for 60marks.
The topics, contents and notes are intended to indicate the scope of the questions which will be set. The notes are not to be considered as an exhaustive list of illustrations/limitations.

Construction of frequency distribution tables, concept of class intervals, class mark and class boundary.
Reading and drawing simple inferences from graphs, interpretation of data in histograms. Exclude unequal class interval. Use of an assumed mean is acceptable but not required. For grouped data, the mode should be estimated from the histogram while the median, quartiles and percentiles are estimated from the cumulative frequency curve.
Application of the cumulative frequency curve to every day life.
Definition of range, variance, standard deviation, inter-quartile range. Note that mean deviation is the mean of the absolute deviations from the mean and variance is the square of the standard deviation. Problems on range, variance, standard deviation etc. §ªStandard deviation of grouped data |
( b ) Probability | (i) Experimental and theoretical probability.
(ii) Addition of probabilities for mutually exclusive and independent events.
(iii) Multiplication of probabilities for independent events. | Include equally likely events e.g. probability of throwing a six with a fair die or a head when tossing a fair coin.
With replacement. §ªwithout replacement.
Simple practical problems only. Interpretation of “and” and “or” in probability. |
¨§ª
|
Vectors as a directed line segment.

Translation of points and shapes in the Cartesian Plane.
Enlargement |
(5, 060 )
e.g. .
Knowledge of graphical representation is necessary.
Restrict Plane to the and axes and in the lines = k, = x and y = k , where k is an integer. Determination of mirror lines (symmetry).
Rotation about the origin and a point other than the origin. Determination of the angle of rotation (restrict angles of rotation to -180 to 180 ).

The use of non-programmable, silent and cordless calculators is allowed. The calculators must, however not have the capability to print out nor to receive or send any information. Phones with or without calculators are not allowed.
Candidates should bring rulers, pairs of compasses, protractors, set squares etc required for papers of the subject. They will not be allowed to borrow such instruments and any other material from other candidates in the examination hall.
Graph papers ruled in 2mm squares will be provided for any paper in which it is required.
