Sample LEAP 2025 Math Grade 8 Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your LEAP 2025 Math Grade 8 exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Which of the following numbers is an irrational number?
A.0.45
B.−3/8
C.√49
D.√30
Explanation: √30 is an irrational number because 30 is not a perfect square, so its square root cannot be written as a ratio of two integers. Its decimal expansion is non-terminating and non-repeating.
2Between which two consecutive integers does √75 lie on a number line?
A.7 and 8
B.6 and 7
C.9 and 10
D.8 and 9
Explanation: Since 8² = 64 and 9² = 81, 75 lies between 64 and 81. Taking square roots gives 8 < √75 < 9, so √75 lies between 8 and 9.
3Which expression is equivalent to x⁴ · x⁷ for all non-zero values of x?
A.x²⁸
B.x¹¹
C.
D.2x¹¹
Explanation: According to the product rule of exponents (aᵐ · aⁿ = aᵐ⁺ⁿ), add the exponents: 4 + 7 = 11. Thus, x⁴ · x⁷ = x¹¹.
4What is the value of 4⁻³ written as a simplified fraction?
A.1/12
B.−64
C.1/64
D.−12
Explanation: By the negative exponent rule (a⁻ⁿ = 1/aⁿ), 4⁻³ = 1/(4³) = 1/64.
5What is the number 0.00058 written in scientific notation?
A.5.8 × 10⁻⁴
B.5.8 × 10⁴
C.0.58 × 10⁻³
D.58 × 10⁻⁵
Explanation: To express 0.00058 in scientific notation, move the decimal point 4 places to the right to obtain a coefficient between 1 and 10 (5.8). Moving 4 places right gives 5.8 × 10⁻⁴.
6Which point on the number line best represents the value of √18?
A.5.12
B.3.85
C.4.24
D.4.82
Explanation: Since 4² = 16 and 5² = 25, √18 lies between 4 and 5. Because 18 is much closer to 16 than to 25, √18 ≈ 4.24.
7Simplify the expression (6⁸) / (6³) and express the result in standard integer form.
A.1⁵ = 1
B.6² point 6
C.6⁵ = 7,776
D.6¹¹ = 362,797,056
Explanation: Using the quotient rule for exponents (aᵐ / aⁿ = aᵐ⁻ⁿ), subtract the exponents: 8 − 3 = 5. Then 6⁵ = 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 = 7,776.
8Which expression is equivalent to (3x⁴)³ for all real values of x?
A.9x¹²
B.9x⁷
C.27x¹²
D.27x⁷
Explanation: Apply the power of a product rule: (3x⁴)³ = 3³ · (x⁴)³. 3³ = 27, and by the power rule (x⁴)³ = x⁴⁽³⁾ = x¹². Thus, the expression simplifies to 27x¹².
9What is the product of (3 × 10⁴) and (2.5 × 10⁵) expressed in scientific notation?
A.7.5 × 10⁹
B.75 × 10⁸
C.7.5 × 10²⁰
D.5.5 × 10⁹
Explanation: Multiply the coefficients: 3 × 2.5 = 7.5. Multiply the powers of ten by adding exponents: 10⁴ × 10⁵ = 10⁴⁺⁵ = 10⁹. Combining gives 7.5 × 10⁹.
10Perform the division: (8.4 × 10⁷) ÷ (2.1 × 10³) and write the quotient in scientific notation.
A.4.0 × 10¹⁰
B.6.3 × 10⁴
C.4.0 × 10²¹
D.4.0 × 10⁴
Explanation: Divide the coefficients: 8.4 ÷ 2.1 = 4.0. Divide powers of ten by subtracting exponents: 10⁷⁻³ = 10⁴. The quotient is 4.0 × 10⁴.
