THIRD TERM MATHEMATICS EXAMINATION PRIMARY 4 – ANSWER KEYS

SECTION A – OBJECTIVE ANSWERS 

1. B – 100 cl

2. A – 2(L + B)

3. A – 13 km

4. C – 366 days

5. A – 2 hours

6. C – calendar

7. B. Area = Length × Breadth

8. B – 24

9. A – 12.99

10. A – 283 cl

11. C – four

12. A – 4029

13. A – two dimensional

14. A – 33.33

15. B – semi-circle

SECTION B – THEORY ANSWERS

1. Area and Perimeter 

Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth, Perimeter of rectangle = 2(L + B)

A. Area – 2 cm x 5 cm = 10 cm², Perimeter – 2(2 cm + 5 cm) = 20 cm

B. Area – 12 cm x 4 cm = 48 cm² Perimeter – 2(12 cm + 4 cm) = 32 cm

C. Area – 7 cm x 7 cm = 49 cm², Perimeter – 2(7 cm + 7 cm) = 28 cm

D. Area – 11 cm x 11 cm = 121 cm², Perimeter – 2(11 cm + 11 cm) = 44 cm

Units of Measurement

2. Time – seconds, minutes, hours

3. Weight – grams (g), kilograms (kg)

4. Capacity – litres (l), centilitres (cl)

Drawing of Time (Clock Interpretation)

5. 2:30 – Half past 2

6. 11:45 – Quarter to 12

7. 6:10 – Ten minutes past 6

8. 8:15 – Quarter past 8

Conversion (grams to kilograms)

9. 30000 g = 30 kg

10. 6000 g = 6 kg

11. 7500 g = 7.5 kg

12. 8400 kg + 5 kg = 8405 kg

Lines of Symmetry

13. Rectangle – 2

14. Kite – 1

15. Square – 4

Convert to Centilitres (cl) – 1 litre = 100 cl

16. 3 l 19 cl = 3 x 100 + 19 = 319 cl

17. 10 l 10 cl = 10 x 100 + 10 = 1010 cl

18. 5 l 15 cl = 5 x 100 + 15 = 515 cl

Calculations

19..14.250 + 6.125 + 1.155 = 21.530 km

20. 8 km 50 cm – 2 km 76 cm = 5 km 74 cm

21. 40 kg 350 g ÷ 5 = 8 kg 70 g

22. 528 g ÷ 4 = 132 g
