Hi, I'm commenting because some questions don't make sense.
For example: There were 17 million families in the UK in 2006. The mean number of children per family was 1.8. How many children were there in the UK? Answers: a) 5 b) 4 c) 3
Then there was that question with the 4 numbers who asked to give the 2. I figured it out anyway but it was a bit weird.
The worst one is the question with the ball, which omits a crucial piece of information which makes it impossible to solve:
"One of the balls is dropped from a height of 2 metres. Each time the ball bounces it reaches – of its previous height. How high will the ball reach after two bounces?" How is anyone supposed to know what "-" means?

these questions don't make any sense so they can't have been taken straight from a past paper. If they are then whoever took this test probably failed it.

Hello, these are taken from past papers exactly so there shouldn't be any mistakes.

There are lots of mistakes in this. For example, the number of children in the UK will be much larger than any of the options given and also the last question says that there are 4 numbers but then they give 3 numbers and ask for 2 more. There are other mistakes as well..
