Sample Questions

Practice with real WAEC SSCE style questions

Q1. A trader bought an article for ₦1,500 and sold it for ₦1,800. Calculate the percentage profit.

  1. A. 15%
  2. B. 20%
  3. C. 25%
  4. D. 30%

Answer: B. 20%

Profit = ₦1,800 − ₦1,500 = ₦300. Percentage profit = (300 ÷ 1500) × 100 = 20%.

  2. B. They have a pH greater than 7
  3. C. They react with metals to produce hydrogen gas
  4. D. They feel soapy to touch

Answer: C. They react with metals to produce hydrogen gas

Acids react with reactive metals such as zinc and iron to produce hydrogen gas and a salt. Turning litmus blue and having pH > 7 are properties of alkalis.

  1. A. Metaphor
