Mathematical Reasoning
GED Math Practice Test 8
Forty new multiple-choice questions, none repeated from earlier tests. Twenty-two are algebra, with extra weight on systems, functions, and writing equations from words. The rest cover number operations, geometry (scale, composite figures, surface area), and data analysis (two-way tables and counting). Use your result here to find your single weakest topic by the numbers.
Question 1 of 40

A community theater sold 220 tickets for one show. Adult tickets cost $14 and child tickets cost $8. Ticket sales totaled $2,600. How many adult tickets were sold?
Score each topic, not just the test
Your overall score tells you how close you are to 145, but it hides where the points went. After this test, count your correct answers in each topic: 22 algebra questions, 6 number operations, 6 geometry, and 6 data analysis. Turn each count into a percent. A score of 4 out of 6 in geometry is 67 percent, while 18 out of 22 in algebra is about 82 percent, even though more algebra questions were missed.
The topic with the lowest percent is your weakest area, and it is where the next week of study should start. If two topics are close, choose algebra, because it makes up more than half of the real test and a small gain there is worth more points.
Plan the last week before test day
If your test date is close, stop taking full tests every day. Spend the last week on short sessions with your weakest topic and on a few mixed questions to keep everything else fresh. Retry the questions you missed on this test without reading the explanations first.
Two days before the test, do one light review and then rest. Check your test time, the route or the online setup, and what you need to bring. A calm, rested mind finds sign errors and misread questions that a tired one misses.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I find my weakest GED math topic from this test?
- Count your correct answers in each topic and divide by the number of questions in that topic. The lowest percent shows your weakest area, even if another topic had more misses in total.
- Should I take a full practice test the day before the GED?
- It is usually better not to. A light review of key skills and a good night’s sleep help more than a long test that leaves you tired.
