Clericla Ability – Basic Mathematics

A basic mathematics test will assess your ability to quickly and accurately perform simple calculations. Calculators are not permitted for these tests, in line with their intended purpose. While the use of pen and paper is allowed, most calculations should ideally be done mentally to save time on each test question.

In a basic mathematics test, you can expect to encounter problems involving:

  • Addition and subtraction
  • Multiplication and division
  • Fractions
  • Decimal numbers
  • Percentages

Basic Mathematics example question:

How much is 30% of 80?






Explanation: Select your answer to display explanation.

Here’s a quick and mental approach to solving this problem:

1: Divide 80 by 10 to find 10%: 80 / 10 = 8
2: Multiply by 3 to find 30%: 8 × 3 = 24

So, 30% of 80 equals 24.
