There are 6 × 2 = 12 dots on top and bottom of the figure, 2 × 7 = 14 dots in middle of the figure. Thus,
there are altogether 12 + 12 + 14 = 𝟑𝟖 dots in the figure.
February has either exactly 28 days in a non-leap year or exactly 29 days in a leap year. January, March, May, July, August,
October and December have exactly 31 days. April, June, September and November have exactly 30 days. Thus, there are 4
months in a year that have exactly 30 days.
The correct keyhole should contain 3 indents (“bumps”) on one side and one indent on the other side as shown on the right.
The indent on the left side of the keyhole is somewhere in between the largest and the 2nd largest indents on the opposite
side. Only option E matches those indents.

The pattern is as follows:
where each subtracted number is 3 more than the previous one. The next number in the sequence is 2.
Let the cost of the red dress be 1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡. Then the cost of the blue dress is
(1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 + 100). It is given that
1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 + (1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 + 100) = 110
2 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑠 + 100 = 110
2 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑠 = 110 − 100 = 10
1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 = 10 ÷ 2 = $𝟓
Let us count the cubes on each stack from left to right. There are 2 cubes in the 1st stack. There are 4 cubes in the 2nd stack.
There are 5 cubes in the 3rd stack. There are 7 cubes in the 4th stack. In total, there are 2 + 4 + 5 + 7 = 𝟏𝟖 cubes.
Since Samuel was 7 years old 5 years ago, Samuel is 7 + 5 = 12 years old now.
As Samuel’s brother, David is 2 years older than him, David is 12 + 2 = 14 years old now.
4 years from now, David will be 14 + 4 = 𝟏𝟖 years old.

As each of them sold the same number of apples, the difference between their number of apples remains the
same before and after selling the apples.
Let the number of apples Daniel has after selling be 1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡. Then Laura has
(1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 + 6) apples. Then
1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 + (1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 + 6) = 36
2 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑠 + 6 = 36
2 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑠 = 36 − 6 = 30
1 𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡 = 30 ÷ 2 = 𝟏𝟓

Since 3 cups = 1 coffee pot, then from the second equation we get that 4 coffee pots = 1200ml or 1 coffee pot = 300ml.
Hence 1 coffee pot = 3 cups = 300ml or 1 cup = 100ml.
Volume of the stewpan = volume of one kettle + volume of one coffee pot + volume of one cup = 1200ml + 300ml + 100ml =

If a number is divisible by both 3 and 5, it must also be divisible by 15. Two-digit multiples of 15 are 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90.
However, only 30, 60 and 90 are even. Thus, there are only 3 two-digit even numbers that can be divided by both 3 and 5.

Aria, Evelyn and Camila sit at a round table. They study in primary 2, 3 and 4. The primary 3 girl is on Aria’s right. Who is the
primary 2 girl? The primary 4 girl is on Camila’s left:
If Aria on top, then Primary 4 girl is on her right:
This is impossible since primary 3 girl must be on her right. Hence, Aria must be Primary 4 student. Camilia must Primary 3 girl
since she is on Aria’s right Thus, Evelyn is Primary 2.

Face 2:
• It doesn’t have a dot on top of its hat.
• It has a white dot on the left of its nose.
• Its eyes look to the right.
• It has a bow tie.
Only Option E has both faces.

Observe that the number “8” requires 7 matchsticks to be formed. Since the smallest whole number should have the least
number of digits, we want to pick the number which requires the most number of matchsticks to be formed, and this number is
8.
After forming 3 “8”s, we have 27 − (3 × 7) = 6 matchstcks left. The numbers which require 6 matchsticks to be formed are 0, 6
and 9.
This 4-digit number cannot start with 0, but it can start with 6. Hence, the smallest number is 6888.
21
From the second clue, hundreds digit must be 9.
From the third clue, tens and ones digits must be 8 and 7 for them to add up to 15. They cannot be 9 and 6 as 9 is already in
hundreds place and all the digits are different.
Since the number is even, ones digit must be 8 and tens digit must be 7.
Thus, the number is 978.
22
List down all the possible ways for the sum of 3 numbers lesser than 7 to be equal to 12.
Let the first dice roll out 1 dot, then the only possible ways to get 12 are 1 + 5 + 6 and 1 + 6 + 5, making it 2 possible ways.
Let the first dice roll out 2 dots, then the only possible ways to get 12 are 2 + 4 + 6 and 2 + 6 + 4, making it 2 possible ways.
Let the first dice roll out 3 dots, then the only possible ways to get 12 are 3 + 4 + 5 and 3 + 5 + 4, making it 2 possible ways.
SMC 2025 Grade 2 Practice Paper 2 · Section C : Integer Type Open Ended Question · Solutions Page 24 of 26
Let the first dice roll out 4 dots, then the only possible ways to get 12 are 4 + 2 + 6, 4 + 6 + 2, 4 + 3 + 5 and 4 + 5 + 3, making
it 4 possible ways.
Let the first dice roll out 5 dots, then the only possible ways to get 12 are 5 + 1 + 6, 5 + 6 + 1, 5 + 3 + 4 and 5 + 4 + 3, making
it 4 possible ways.
Let the first dice roll out 6 dots, then the only possible ways to get 12 are 6 + 1 + 5, 6 + 5 + 1, 6 + 2 + 4 and 6 + 4 + 2, making
it 4 possible ways.
Total number of ways = 2 + 2 + 2 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 18
23
Suppose all the animals were chickens. Then there would be 8 × 2 = 16 legs in total. As the actual number of legs is 26, there
is a difference of 26 − 16 = 10 legs. The difference between the number of legs of a cow and a chicken is 4 − 2 = 2. Hence,
there are 10 ÷ 2 = 5 cows and 8 − 5 = 𝟑 chickens in the barn.
24
In this question, we must consider the worst-case scenario. In the worst-case scenario, Isabella gets all the 11 green apples
and 7 yellow apples for her first 18 draws. She would then get the remaining red apples in her next 3 draws. Hence the least
number of apples she needs to take out is 11 + 7 + 3 = 𝟐𝟏.
25
A three-digit number plus a two-digit number can only result in a four-digit number that starts with 1. Hence R must be 1. F
must then be 1 + 1 = 2. Different letters stand for different digits, so C cannot be the same as E. Thus, there should be a carry
over of 1 from the tens place addition and C = 9. Hence, E = 0 and O = 5, Therefore, REEF stands for 1002.
