AIMS Grade 8 Mathematics Think-Throughs & Practice Applications
The problems on the following pages are from the sample test you just finished. They have been
worked out for you to show the thought process behind finding the answers.
As you go through them, see how your thoughts compare to the ones given. Not every problem
from the sample test will be shown in this same manner.
The number for each problem matches the same number that it is in the sample test. This way, if
you got the problem incorrect you can compare your answers and go back to see what you may
have done differently.
Then, after each Think-Through problem, you will find two more problems to apply what you just
learned from the Think-Through problems. These will be very similar to the Think-Through
problem. They are also testing the same academic performance objective. This will give you
even more practice to think through your own problem solving process.
As you read through the solution process of the problems, you may notice that some of the words
are italicized. This indicates some mathematics terms that would be helpful to know.
After the two application problems, there will be a Summary Statement which explains the basic
concept that the problems are testing. This will help you to understand which concepts you may
need more work on or which concepts you may have mastered.
