AFCAT exam
There are few simple AFCAT exam numerical ability maths formulas you should keep on your nger
tips to solves the mathematics question of AFCAT question paper. AFCAT exam paper consists of
very basic mathematics questions and these formulas will help you to clear them easily:
Decimal Fraction: A decimal fraction is a fraction in which denominator is an integer power of ten.
(The term decimals are commonly used to refer decimal fractions). Generally, a decimal fraction is
expressed using decimal notation and its denominator is not mentioned explicitly.
Conversion of a Decimal into Common Fraction: Put 1 in the denominator under the decimal point
and annex with it as many zeros as is the number of digits after the decimal point. Now, remove
the decimal point and reduce the fraction to its lowest terms.
Simpli cation: Rule of BODMAS This rule depicts the correct sequence in which the operations
are to be executed, so as to nd out the value of given expression. Full form of BODMAS is B
Bracket, O of, D Division, M Multiplication, A Addition and S Subtraction. Thus, while solving
or simplifying a problem, rst remove all brackets, strictly in the order (), {} and ||. After removing
the brackets, we will use the following operations strictly in the following order: (i) of (ii) Division (iii)
Multiplication (iv) Addition (v) Subtraction.
Average:
1. By a certain percent, we mean that many hundredths. Thus, x percent means x hundredths, written
as x%. To express x% as a fraction: We have, x% = x/100
3. Percentage Increase/Decrease: If the price of a commodity increases by R%, then the reduction in
consumption so as not to increase the expenditure is: [(R/(100+R)) x 100]%. If the price of a
commodity decreases by R%, then the increase in consumption so as not to decrease the
expenditure is: [(R/(100-R)) x 100]%.
4. Result on Population: Let the population of a town be P now and suppose it increases at the rate of
R% per annum, then: population after n years = P (1+(R/100))n Population n years ago= P/ (1+
(R/100))n
5. Result on Depreciation: Let the present value of a machine be P. Suppose it depreciates at the rate
of R% per annum. Then: Value of the machine after n years = P (1-(R/100)n , Value of the machine n
years ago = P/ (1-(R/100)n, If A is R% more than B, then B is less than A by [(R/(100+R)) x 100] %, If A
is R% less than B, then B is more than A by [(R/(100-R)) x 100] %
Ratio:
1. The ratio of two quantities a and b in the same units, is the fraction and we write it as a : b. In the
ratio a : b, we call a as the rst term or antecedent and b, the second term or consequent. Eg. The
ratio 5 : 9 represents 5/9 with antecedent = 5, consequent = 9.
2. Rule: The multiplication or division of each term of a ratio by the same non-zero number does not
a ect the ratio. Eg. 4 : 5 = 8 : 10 = 12 : 15. Also, 4 : 6 = 2 : 3.
Simple Interest:
1. Principal: The money borrowed or lent out for a certain period is called the principal or the sum.
2. Interest: Extra money paid for using others money is called interest.
3. Simple Interest (S.I.): If the interest on a sum borrowed for certain period is reckoned uniformly, then
it is called simple interest. Let Principal = P, Rate = R% per annum (p.a.) and Time = T years. Then
Simple Interest = (P x R x T)/100
2. Selling Price: The price, at which an article is sold, is called its selling prices, abbreviated as S.P.
3. Pro t or Gain: If S.P. is greater than C.P., the seller is said to have a pro t or gain.
4. Loss: If S.P. is less than C.P., the seller is said to have incurred a loss.
14. If an article is sold at a gain of say 10%, then S.P. = 110% of C.P.
15. If an article is sold at a loss of say, 20% then S.P. = 80% of C.P.
16. When a person sells two similar items, one at a gain of say x%, and the other at a loss of x%, then
the seller always incurs a loss given by: Loss % = (x/10)2
17. If a trader professes to sell his goods at cost price, but uses false weights, then Gain % =
[(Error/(True Wight Error)) x 100 ]%
Prepare with good AFCAT exam books: AFCAT exam preparation books which are available in the
market are just like any other question bank, since the time in hand is less be selective when
choosing topics to prepare, better to go for topics on which you have prior basic knowledge. Practice
as much as questions possible, study solved examples very closely and sort out the pattern for

as much as possible.

marks in spatial ability and military aptitude sections of AFCAT exam. Only thing you need is to know
what kind of questions you will face in spatial ability and mental ability sections of AFCAT exam.
