ADVANCED NUMERICAL TESTS

Numerical Tests form part of 97% of career assessment centres; therefore, it is vital that you are competent in the use of numbers. The reason why so many employers use numerical tests as part of their selection process is simply because they are such a reliable method of assessment. If you are competent in the use of numerical tests then you are far more likely to be competent in the role.

This very powerful Advanced Numerical Tests book will provide you with literally hundreds of sample test questions to help you pass any test with high scores.

If you are required to sit a numerical test, and let’s face it, you will have to if you applying for a job, then this professional 170-page book is the only resource you will ever need. It is packed full of crucial tips, advice and a multitude of test questions to assist you. There are even explanations to all of the questions!

BASIC – INTERMEDIATE – ADVANCED

In this direct, but easy to follow guide, you will be taught the basics of maths through to intermediate numerical questions and then followed by advanced numerical reasoning. Broken down into detailed examples for every numerical reasoning question type, this guide then includes 100s of sample questions for you to practice your numerical reasoning – each with its own detailed answer.

Focused on primarily on helping people like you to pass any form of numerical reasoning test, including GCSE mathematics, 11-plus, career assessment centres, A-level mathematics and also advanced numeracy tests.

The image below shows the cumulative number of births in various locations across the UK over a period of 4 months.

Q. For the month of September, how many births took place in Maidstone?

a. 9

b. 1,200

c. 3,000

d. 200

e. 250

SOLUTION TO ADVANCED NUMERICAL TEST
QUESTION 1

NOTE: The graph data is cumulative. What this means is that the data is increasing by successive addition for every month, starting with the month of September.

The following is a good explanation of how cumulative graphs, such as the one above, function. Assume you get an income paid into your bank every week. On the first week you get paid, you spend nothing from your earnings and then get paid again the second week, but an unspecified amount. Your income for the second week could be higher or lower than your earnings on the first week. A cumulative data graph would not tell you directly how much income you have made for the second week, but what it would tell you directly is how much income you have had in total over the two weeks.

Referring back to the question, sadly, this means that it is not simply a matter of reading straight off the graph to see how many births took place in September, which we are sure every reader would no doubt prefer it to be!

The procedure to get the correct answer is outlined below:

For the month of September, in Maidstone, we need to look at the two points located above 31st August and 30th September and then find the difference between them:

Follow the 30th September upwards from the x-axis* until it hits the Maidstone curve, the data point sits on the number 4 in the y-axis*. Do the same for the 31st August. Following it upwards until it hits the Maidstone curve reveals that the data point lies on the number 2 in the y-axis. Both points are circled in the diagram below for clarity.

*The x-axis is the horizontal component of any graph and the y-axis is the vertical component of any graph.

To find the difference, subtract both points from each other: 4-2=2

The next thing we need to consider is that the title of the graph tells us that all numbers used in the graph are shortened by two zeros [Cumulative Births (00s)]. So, for the difference we just calculated between the two points above 30th September and 31st August, the number 2 becomes 200.

This is the answer to Question 1: d. 200
