Below are topics listed in the IB syllabus as topics that are considered “Presumed Knowledge.”
Students should be comfortable with most topics listed. If any of these topics do not seem
familiar you should ask for clarification.
PK1 Numbers and Algebra
1.01
Basic use of the four operations of arithmetic, using integers, decimals and simple
fractions, including order of operations. Examples: 2(3  4  7)  62 ; 2  3  4  7  34
1.02
Prime numbers, factors and multiples.
1.03
Simple applications of ratio, percentage and proportion.
1.04
Absolute value a . Example: 4  7  3
1.05
Basic manipulation of simple algebraic expressions including factorization and
expansion.
Examples:
ab  ac  a(b  c); a 2  2ab  b 2   a  b  ; a 2  b 2  (a  b)(a  b)
2
3x 2  5x  2  (3x  2)( x  1); xa  2a  2b  ( x  2)(a  b)
1.06
Solving linear equations in one variable. Example: 3( x  6)  4( x  1)  0
1.07
Solving a system of linear equations in two variables.
Example:
3 x  4 y  13
2 x  2 y  1
1.08
Evaluating exponential expressions. Examples: a b , b  Z; 24 
1.09
Order relations <, ≤, >, ≥ and their properties.

Examples: Swiss franc (CHF); United States dollar (USD, $); British pound sterling
(GBP, £); Japanese yen (JPY)
On the pages that follow, you will find a set of questions addressing these topics. You may work
in groups, but each student is to turn in a separate paper. Please circle all final answers.
