Answers:

2- A
\(1\) issue\(= $4\)
How many issue? \(= $72\)
\($72 ÷ $4= 18\) issue

3- C
Use perimeter of triangle formula.
\(P = a + b + c\)
\(P = 12 + 15 + 16 = 43\) inches

4- C
Use perimeter of rectangle formula.
\(P = 2(L + W)\)
\(60 = 2(10+W) ⇒ 2W = 40 ⇒ W = 20 \)feet

5- B
An obtuse triangle is one with one obtuse angle (greater than 90\(^\circ\)) and two acute angles. Since a triangle’s angles must sum to 180\(^\circ\), no triangle can have more than one obtuse angle.

6- C
\(1\) foot \(= 0.333 \)yard
So \(36\) foot \(= 12\) yards \((36 × 0.33)\)

7- B
The sum of \(A\) and \(B\) equals \(35: A + B = 35\), if \(A = 16\) we have \(16 +B = 35\)

8- D
\(A = 108 ÷ 9 = 12\)

9- B
Sum of these three angle are 180\(^\circ\).
\(A^\circ + 80^\circ + 16^\circ = 180^\circ\)
\(A^\circ =180^\circ – 96^\circ = 84^\circ\)

10- C
Use perimeter of trapezoid formula.
\(P = a + b + c + d\)
\(P = 2+ 6 + 2+ 8 =18\)

11- B
Low temperature is 24\(^\circ\)f cooler than the temperature at 12:00 PM that is 76of, that means low temperature is 52\(^\circ\)f (76\(^\circ\)f \(-\) 24\(^\circ\)f) that is close to choice B

12- A
\((4 × 10) + (7 × 1) + (6 × 0.01) = 40 + 7 + 0.06 = 47.06\)

13- D
1 year \(=\) 365 days, 1 day \(=\) 24 hours
1 year \(=\) 365 × 24
1 year \(=\) 8,760

14- B
Each game = \(\frac{11}{2}\) hours = 90 minutes so 3 games = \(\frac{41}{2}\) hours = 270 minutes
5minutes between each game, so there is 10 minutes in total between 3 games.
She arrives 15 minutes before first game and left 10 minutes after the last game.
In total she was \(270+10+15+10 =305\) minutes at the soccer field.

15- A
You can find if a shape has a Line of Symmetry by folding it. When the folded part sits perfectly on top (all edges matching), then the fold line is a Line of Symmetry. Here the first shape shows a line of symmetry.

16- B
Find the least common denominator (LCD), then rewriting each term as an equivalent fraction with the LCD. Then we compare the numerators of each fraction and put them in correct order from least to greatest or greatest to least.
LCD of 2, 8, 4 and 16 is 16. Rewrite the input fractions as equivalent fractions using the LCD:
A. \(\frac{8}{16}\)
B. \(\frac{6}{16}\)
C. \(\frac{12}{16}\)
D. \(\frac{9}{16}\)
So choice B has the least value.

17- D
12 pastilles\(=\) 1 box
336 pastilles\(=\) (\(336 ÷12 = 28\)) boxes

18- 64

Use volume of cube formula:
V\(=a^3\)
V\(=4^3 =64\)

19- C
Arrow shows exactly the middle of two numbers 25 and 35, so the answer is 30

20- A
This shape shows 3 complete shaded triangles and a half of a triangle that is equal to \(3\frac{1}{2}\)

Frequently Asked Questions

How many questions are on the 4th Grade ACT Aspire math test?

The real ACT Aspire Grade 4 math test has about 36 questions delivered in 65 minutes. Most are multiple choice, but expect 6-8 technology-enhanced items (drag-and-drop, hot spot) and at least one constructed-response item. Our free practice gives your child 20 of the most representative question types.

Is a calculator allowed on the 4th Grade ACT Aspire?

No. Calculators are not allowed on the Grade 4 ACT Aspire math test. Calculators become available on the math test starting in grade 6. Your fourth grader should drill multi-digit multiplication, division, and fraction work by hand.

What score does my child need on the 4th Grade ACT Aspire?

ACT Aspire reports scores on a 400-456 scale at grade 4, with “Ready” being the on-track benchmark. The Grade 4 readiness benchmark for math is a scale score of 413. Above that means your child is on track for college-readiness benchmarks down the road.

When is the ACT Aspire test given?

States and districts choose when to give the ACT Aspire, but most schedule it in the late spring (March-May) so it serves as an end-of-year assessment. A few districts use it as a fall pretest. Ask your child’s teacher for the specific window at your school.

How is the ACT Aspire Grade 4 math scored?

The math section is reported as a scale score (400-456 at grade 4) with a readiness level (In Need of Support, Close, Ready, Exceeding). Multiple choice and technology-enhanced items get auto-scored; constructed-response items are hand-scored. Reports usually arrive within 4-6 weeks of testing.

Can my child retake the ACT Aspire?

The summative ACT Aspire is given once a year, so there’s no in-year retake. Some districts also use ACT Aspire Interim tests during the year for practice, but those don’t replace the summative score.

What math topics are on the 4th Grade ACT Aspire?

The Grade 4 math test covers the same areas as Common Core Grade 4: number and operations in base ten (place value, multi-digit operations), number and operations – fractions (equivalent fractions, decimals), operations and algebraic thinking, measurement and data, and geometry (lines, angles, symmetry).

How long should we study for the 4th Grade ACT Aspire?

About 4-6 weeks of light practice (15-20 minutes a day, 4 days a week) usually works. Start with one full practice set as a diagnostic, identify the weak topic areas, then mix lesson review with short timed practice. Avoid heavy cramming the week before – tired kids underperform.

Where can I find more 4th Grade ACT Aspire practice?

EffortlessMath has free worked-example lessons for every Grade 4 Common Core math topic, plus the Common Core Mathematics Workbook for Grade 4 and the grade-4 practice-test bundle. The related lessons below this practice cover the topics most frequently tested on ACT Aspire.

Is the ACT Aspire aligned with Common Core?

Yes, mostly. ACT designed Aspire to align with the Common Core State Standards while predicting future ACT performance. The wording matches Common Core closely, so Common Core grade-level materials work well as prep.
