A bus travels 180 kilometers in three hours at a constant speed. At that speed, how far does it travel in five hours?
Show answer and explanation

Each pair advances four letter positions: CF → GJ. Apply the same shift to KM.

Grade 7 figure pair 1: Which choice applies the same changes to the second pair?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: D. Reduce size and remove the fill while preserving shape.
Grade 7 figure pair 2: Which choice applies the same changes to the second pair?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: A. Add two shapes and change filled to outline. 2 becomes 4, with the second shape preserved.
Grade 7 matrix: Infer the size and shading change across the top row, then complete the bottom row.
Show answer and explanation
Answer: B. Across each row a large outline becomes a small filled shape. Down each column only the shape changes. Choose the small filled bottom-row shape.
Practice group 3 Questions 13–18
Grade 7 count matrix: Track both number and shading across the rows. Which box is missing?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: C. Each row adds one shape and changes filled to outline. The bottom row starts with 2, so it ends with 3 outline shapes.
Grade 7 sequence: Shapes alternate and sizes repeat large, small, small. Shading alternates filled, outline. What comes next?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: D. The sixth figure uses the second shape, the third size in the size cycle (small), and outline shading. Track each attribute separately.
Grade 7 repeating groups: Counts cycle 1, 2, 3 while shading alternates. Complete the sixth figure.
Show answer and explanation
Answer: A. Counts repeat 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3. Shading alternates filled and outline, so the sixth figure has three outline shapes.
Which number continues this pattern: 2, 6, 15, 31, ___?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: A. Add successive squares: 4, 9, 16, then 25. 31 + 25 = 56.
One rule links each input to its output: 6 → 35; 8 → 63. Under the same rule, 10 → ___?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: C. Square the input, then subtract 1. The examples give 6² − 1 = 35 and 8² − 1 = 63. Thus 10² − 1 = 99.
Grade 7 number matrix: Multiply the first two numbers, then add two. Which value fills the last cell?
| 5 | 5 | 27 |
| 6 | 6 | 38 |
| 7 | 7 | ? |
Show answer and explanation
Answer: D. The same rule holds in both complete rows. For the last row: 7 × 7 + 2 = 51.
