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 NYSE math test?

The real New York State Grade 4 math test has about 36-44 questions split across two test days. Day 1 is mostly multiple choice with around 24-28 items. Day 2 has short-response and extended-response problems where your child shows work. Total testing time is about 110 minutes across the two days.

Is a calculator allowed on the 4th Grade NYSE?

No. Calculators are not allowed on the Grade 4 NYSE math test. New York permits calculator use starting in grade 6 on the calculator-allowed sections. Your fourth grader should drill multi-digit multiplication, division, and fraction work by hand.

What’s a passing score on the 4th Grade NYSE math test?

The NYSE reports 4 performance levels: Level 1 (well below proficient), Level 2 (below proficient), Level 3 (proficient), and Level 4 (above proficient). Level 3 is the on-grade-level target and is generally considered the “passing” cutoff. Scale scores for Level 3 vary slightly each year but sit near 320 out of a roughly 150-400 range.

When is the NYSE given?

The Grade 4 NYSE math is given in late April or early May each year. New York sets a fixed two-day testing window, and your child’s school administers both days during that window. Schools publish the exact dates a few weeks in advance.

How is the NYSE Grade 4 math scored?

Day 1 multiple choice is auto-scored. Day 2 short-response and extended-response items are scored by trained NY State teachers using a published rubric. Scores combine into a single scale score (roughly 148-405) and one of 4 performance levels. Reports come home over the summer.

Can my child retake the NYSE?

The Grade 4 NYSE math is given once per year with no in-year retake. If your child scores at Level 1 or Level 2, the school may schedule extra support during the next year, and your child will take a fresh test in grade 5.

What math topics are on the 4th Grade NYSE?

New York Next Generation Math Standards for Grade 4 cover: place value through 1,000,000, multi-digit multiplication and division, fractions (equivalent fractions, comparison, addition/subtraction with like denominators, multiplying fractions by whole numbers), decimals to hundredths, area and perimeter, angle measurement, and basic geometry (parallel/perpendicular lines, symmetry).

How long should we study for the 4th Grade NYSE?

For most kids, 6-8 weeks of light practice (15-20 minutes a day, 4 days a week) works well. Start with a diagnostic, focus on the 2-3 weakest topics, then add full timed practice sessions in the last 2 weeks. Practice the short-response and extended-response format – kids often forget to show their work.

Where can I find more 4th Grade NYSE practice?

EffortlessMath has free lessons for every Grade 4 Common Core math topic the NYSE tests, plus the Common Core Mathematics Workbook for Grade 4 and a grade-4 practice test bundle. The related lessons below cover the NYSE’s highest-frequency topics.

Is the NYSE aligned with Common Core?

Yes – New York’s Next Generation Math Standards are derived from Common Core with state-specific adjustments (about 90% overlap). Common Core Grade 4 math materials work very well as NYSE prep with minor wording differences on a few topics.
