SACE Year 11 Essential Mathematics Financial mathematics hard payslip diagram

1. A payslip shows 38 hours at $31.20 per hour and 4 overtime hours at time-and-a-half. Tax withheld is 19% of gross pay and a $12 fee is deducted. What is the net pay, to the nearest cent?

Choices

$1,099.97
$1,111.97
$1,112.00
$1,372.80

Explanation:

Gross pay is 38 x $31.20 + 4 x $46.80 = $1372.80. Tax is 0.19 x $1372.80 = $260.83 to the nearest cent. Net pay is $1372.80 - $260.83 - $12 = $1099.97.

SACE Year 11 Essential Mathematics Scale and measurement hard scale plan

2. A site plan uses a scale of 1:150. A rectangular room measures 9.6 cm by 5.4 cm on the plan. What is the actual floor area?

Choices

116.64 m²
51.84 m²
11.664 m²
174.96 m²

Explanation:

At a scale of 1:150, 9.6 cm represents 14.4 m and 5.4 cm represents 8.1 m. The actual area is 14.4 x 8.1 = 116.64 m².

SACE Year 11 Essential Mathematics Rates and linear models hard break-even graph

3. Plan A costs $28 plus $0.18 per minute. Plan B costs $46 plus $0.06 per minute. At how many minutes do the two plans cost the same?

Choices

150 minutes
100 minutes
180 minutes
240 minutes

Explanation:

Set the costs equal: 28 + 0.18m = 46 + 0.06m. Then 0.12m = 18, so m = 150 minutes.

SACE Year 11 Essential Mathematics Data and decision making hard weighted score chart

4. A safety score is weighted 40% accuracy, 35% time, and 25% safety. Lee scores 78, 84, and 92 in those categories. What is Lee's weighted score?

Choices

83.6
84.7
78.0
254.0

Explanation:

The weighted score is 0.40 x 78 + 0.35 x 84 + 0.25 x 92 = 31.2 + 29.4 + 23.0 = 83.6.

SACE Year 11 Essential Mathematics Probability hard probability tree

5. A repair passes the first check with probability 0.82. If it passes the first check, it passes the final check with probability 0.90. If it fails the first check, rework still gives probability 0.35 of passing the final check. What is the probability it passes the final check?

Choices

0.801
0.738
0.287
0.900

Explanation:

Use both branches that end in a final pass: 0.82 x 0.90 + 0.18 x 0.35 = 0.738 + 0.063 = 0.801.

SACE Year 11 Essential Mathematics Measurement and conversion hard measurement diagram

6. A rectangular water tank is 1.8 m by 1.2 m by 0.75 m and is filled to 80% capacity. How many litres of water are in the tank?

Choices

1296 L
1620 L
129.6 L
972 L

Explanation:

The full volume is 1.8 x 1.2 x 0.75 = 1.62 m³. At 80% capacity, the volume is 1.296 m³, which is 1296 L.

For parents comparing SACE Year 11 Essential Mathematics support

SACE Year 11 Essential Mathematics practice should make finance, measurement, rates, data, probability, and practical modelling feel structured rather than guessable. These examples preview that style before the no-login Essential Mathematics demo.

What this practice and exercise page covers

Essential Mathematics practice sits inside SACE Mathematics Stage 1 coverage for algebra, calculus, statistics, probability, measurement, finance, and modelling, with Skill Align keeping the route focused on the selected maths pathway.

Senior practice is organised by pathway, unit, topic, and mode so students can revise targeted areas rather than sitting a full-paper workflow every time. Skill Align treats practice questions and exercise questions as the same learning workflow: students answer curriculum-aligned questions, review explanations, and move between exercise mode and test mode.

Start with the public sample questions to check the question style, then use the curriculum coverage page to choose a topic that matches the student's current classwork.

Preview question styles

Number and financial maths: Students practise number and financial maths through short targeted questions, explanations, and mode-specific feedback.
Measurement and practical geometry: Students practise measurement and practical geometry through short targeted questions, explanations, and mode-specific feedback.
Algebra and graphs: Students practise algebra and graphs through short targeted questions, explanations, and mode-specific feedback.
