Number system questions, covering divisibility, HCF and LCM, remainders and digits, were the single largest group, with 22 of the 100 questions. Algebra, ratio and proportion, simple and compound interest, and time and work followed with eight questions each. The mix shifted between sessions: Session 2 had more geometry and mensuration (five questions against one) and fewer sequence questions (one against five), so every topic needs coverage. All questions were within school-level arithmetic and algebra.
