About this course
In this course you practise the maths part of apprenticeship and trade entrance tests with original exam-style questions. You apply the order of operations and estimate a workshop order with rounded prices, convert fractions and write them in simplest form, and solve percent change, discount-plus-surcharge and reverse percentage questions. Rule of three covers direct and inverse proportion, mix ratios and work rates. A unit table with XLOOKUP converts lengths, areas, volumes, masses and times, then you calculate floors, triangles, circles and tanks, solve word problems step by step and score two timed mock tests with a weak-topic report.
