Math: Decimals
IntellectualSolve decimal arithmetic problems — addition, subtraction, multiplication and division with decimal numbers.
Overview
The Decimal Math test measures your mental arithmetic accuracy with non-integer values. You will see additions and subtractions of decimal numbers, multiplications and divisions of small decimals, and a series of compact scientific-notation style products (e.g. 0.13 × 0.017). The test is commonly used in pilot selection assessments to evaluate your ability to manipulate decimal place values under time pressure.
Assessments
Tested in assessments at KLM.
Could show up in Schuhfried, cut-e / Aon, COMPASS, DLR, ADAPT, PILAPT and SHL-based selections.

Example: add the decimals
You are shown a decimal arithmetic problem. Line the numbers up by place value, compute, and pick the matching result. Exactly one option is correct.
Align the decimal points — treat 3.6 as 3.60 — and add: 3.60 + 0.45 = 4.05. The traps come from misreading place value: 4.5 tacks the 45 on after the 6, 0.81 adds the digits 36 + 45 with no regard for the point.

14 exercisesMath: Full
A mixed practice test combining all math categories — integers, decimals, fractions, time, weight, operators, and percentages — with a per-question timer.
Math: Fractions
Solve fraction arithmetic problems — addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of fractions.
Math: Integers
Solve integer arithmetic problems — addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Math: Operators
Find the two operators that make the fraction equal the target value.

Math: Time
Add or subtract two times expressed in hours, minutes, and seconds.
Math: Weight
Add or subtract two weights expressed in kilograms and grams.
Equation Completion
Fill each equation's gaps with digit tiles 1 to 9, each usable once, so the given result is correct. The faithful cut-e (Aon scales eql) digit entry format, plus our multiple choice practice variant.
Data Interpretation
Read data from a chart or table — bar, line, pie or table — and answer a numerical question or judge a statement True, False or Cannot Say, one item at a time against the clock. Play with a single chart per question, or the cut-e-realistic tabbed workbook where finding the right dataset is part of the task.
Speed, Distance & Time
Solve speed–distance–time word problems in an aviation setting — ground speed, distance to run, ETA and fuel burn — applying distance = speed × time to find the missing variable, mentally and against the clock.
Audio Math Test
Mental arithmetic you hear instead of read: each question is narrated once in your headphones, and the answer clock only starts when the voice stops.
ENAC Mental Calculation
Four series of ten boards, back to back, each on its own clock. You type the result of a chain of additions and subtractions, type the value of the last letter in a small system, choose the narrowest of 10 intervals that holds a result, then tick every one of 7 intervals that does. On the ENAC EPL form, every chain in the first series ends on a multiplication and each series gets 4 minutes. On the Air France Cadets form, the first series is sums only and each series gets 6 minutes.
ENAC Mathématiques
Thirty word problems on percentages, speeds, work rates, shapes and clocks, with a pen and paper but no calculator. You type most answers as a number and pick a few from five. The exam format is 30 problems in 35 minutes.
ENAC Calculation Grids
A board of 9 complete calculations, three by three. Some of them are false. Click the false ones, then validate before the bar runs out. A board holds anywhere from none to 4 false ones. The exam format is 8 boards with 40 seconds each.
