Sample MTYA Grade 5 Math Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your MTYA Grade 5 Math exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1What is the value of the expression 3 × (4 + 5)?
A.27
B.17
C.12
D.23
Explanation: According to the order of operations, evaluate the addition inside the parentheses first: 4 + 5 = 9. Then multiply the result by 3: 3 × 9 = 27.
2Which numerical expression represents 'add 8 and 12, then multiply by 2'?
A.(8 + 12) × 2
B.8 + (12 × 2)
C.8 × 12 + 2
D.8 + 12 × 2
Explanation: The phrase 'add 8 and 12' requires parentheses around (8 + 12) so that addition is performed first. Multiplying the entire sum by 2 yields (8 + 12) × 2.
3Evaluate the numerical expression: (15 - 5) ÷ 2.
A.5
B.10
C.12.5
D.7.5
Explanation: First, evaluate the subtraction inside the parentheses: 15 - 5 = 10. Next, divide 10 by 2, which gives 5.
4Pattern A starts at 0 and adds 3. Pattern B starts at 0 and adds 6. What are the first three terms of Pattern A and Pattern B?
A.Pattern A: 0, 3, 6; Pattern B: 0, 6, 12
B.Pattern A: 3, 6, 9; Pattern B: 6, 12, 18
C.Pattern A: 0, 3, 5; Pattern B: 0, 6, 10
D.Pattern A: 0, 1, 2; Pattern B: 0, 2, 4
Explanation: Pattern A starts at 0 and adds 3: 0, 0+3=3, 3+3=6. Pattern B starts at 0 and adds 6: 0, 0+6=6, 6+6=12. The first three terms are (0, 3, 6) and (0, 6, 12).
5Which statement correctly compares the values of the expressions 4 × (5 + 3) and (5 + 3)?
A.The value of 4 × (5 + 3) is 4 times the value of (5 + 3).
B.The value of 4 × (5 + 3) is 4 more than the value of (5 + 3).
C.The value of 4 × (5 + 3) is equal to the value of (5 + 3).
D.The value of 4 × (5 + 3) is 3 times the value of (5 + 3).
Explanation: Multiplying an expression (5 + 3) by 4 scales the entire quantity by a factor of 4. Therefore, 4 × (5 + 3) is 4 times as large as (5 + 3).
6Evaluate: 20 - [2 × (3 + 4)].
A.6
B.14
C.26
D.10
Explanation: First, evaluate the innermost grouping: 3 + 4 = 7. Next, evaluate the brackets: 2 × 7 = 14. Finally, subtract from 20: 20 - 14 = 6.
7What is the value of the expression 4 × [10 - (2 + 3)]?
A.20
B.35
C.15
D.25
Explanation: First perform the inner addition: 2 + 3 = 5. Next subtract inside the bracket: 10 - 5 = 5. Finally, multiply: 4 × 5 = 20.
8Which expression represents 'subtract 6 from 18, then divide by the sum of 1 and 3'?
A.(18 - 6) ÷ (1 + 3)
B.(18 - 6) ÷ 1 + 3
C.18 - (6 ÷ 1) + 3
D.18 - 6 ÷ (1 + 3)
Explanation: 'Subtract 6 from 18' is written as (18 - 6). 'The sum of 1 and 3' is written as (1 + 3). Dividing the first quantity by the second gives (18 - 6) ÷ (1 + 3).
9Evaluate: [(8 + 4) × 3] - 10.
A.26
B.36
C.22
D.16
Explanation: First, evaluate the inner addition: 8 + 4 = 12. Next, multiply inside the brackets: 12 × 3 = 36. Finally, subtract: 36 - 10 = 26.
10Pattern X starts at 0 and adds 4 (0, 4, 8, 12...). Pattern Y starts at 0 and adds 12 (0, 12, 24, 36...). How do the terms in Pattern Y compare to the corresponding terms in Pattern X?
A.Each term in Pattern Y is 3 times the corresponding term in Pattern X.
B.Each term in Pattern Y is 8 more than the corresponding term in Pattern X.
C.Each term in Pattern Y is 4 times the corresponding term in Pattern X.
D.Each term in Pattern Y is 2 times the corresponding term in Pattern X.
Explanation: Comparing corresponding terms: 0 vs 0 (3×0=0), 4 vs 12 (3×4=12), 8 vs 24 (3×8=24), 12 vs 36 (3×12=36). Each term in Pattern Y is 3 times the corresponding term in Pattern X because 12 ÷ 4 = 3.
