PREFACE
Our education system effectively provides an introduction to the concepts

of math and science and helps us understand the underlying concepts.
But in its overly generalized approach, which aims to enlighten and test
all students of varying caliber and interests, it leaves the exploration of
application of all these concepts completely on the students.
This workbook is designed to enable students to explore math effectively.

Designed in accordance with the requirements of the Math Olympiads,
the workbook is an efficient tool to achieve comprehensive success at
the ISFO - Math Olympiad and other talent examinations.
The main aim of this workbook is to assist students in developing and

improving their ability to solve problems of varying levels.
This book consists of two sets of questions: Section-A (Groundwork)

and Section-B (Thought Provoking). Questions in section A is of
basic level aiming to strengthen the basic concepts and section B has
been designed to have questions of higher difficulty level, aiming to
instill the application of the basic concepts.
Answer keys have been provided to accelerate the learning process.

CHAPTER FRACTIONS
Some Facts:
A fraction is number representing a part of a whole. The whole can be a group of
objects or a single object.
A fraction can be represented on the number line. Every fraction has a
corresponding point on the number line.
Fractions in which the numerator is less than the denominator are called proper
fractions.
Fractions in which the numerator is equal to or bigger than the denominator are
called improper fractions.
A combination of a whole number and a proper fraction is called a mixed fraction.
It is the combination of a whole and a part.

3 RATIO AND
CHAPTER PROPORTION
Some Facts:
Comparison between the quantities can be made by using division.
To calculate ratio, the two quantities have to be measured using the same unit. If
not, they should be converted to the same unit before ratio is taken.
Two ratios are said to be equivalent if the fractions corresponding to them are
equivalent.
If the ratios between quantity A and quantity B is equal to the ratio between
quantity C and quantity D, then the four quantities A, B, C and D, are said to be in
proportion. Proportion is denoted by the signs ' or = .

ANGLES
Some Facts:
The angle whose measure is equal to 180 is called a straight angle.
The angle whose measure is greater than 180 and less than 360 is called a reflex
angle.
Two angles sum of whose measures is 90 are called complementary angles.
Two angles sum of whose measures is 180 are called supplementary angles.
Angles with a common vertex and a common arm are called adjacent angles.
A pair of adjacent angles whose noncommon arms are opposite rays is called a
linear pair.
Two angles that are not adjacent but have a common vertex are called vertically
opposite angles. Vertically opposite angles are opposite to each other and are equal.
