Question 1 of 3 · No calculator needed
Put -2.07, -2.7, -2.17 and -2.071 in ascending order.
Ascending means smallest to largest. For negative numbers, the value furthest below zero is smallest: -2.7 < -2.17 < -2.071 < -2.07.

Question 2 of 3 · No calculator needed
Work out 27^(2/3).
The denominator 3 means take the cube root and the numerator 2 means square: 27^(2/3) = (∛27)² = 3² = 9.
Question 3 of 3 · No calculator needed
The point (3, 4) lies on x² + y² = 25. What is the gradient of the tangent there?
The radius from (0, 0) to (3, 4) has gradient 4/3. A tangent is perpendicular to the radius, so its gradient is the negative reciprocal, -3/4.
These tiles show your answers to three questions. They are a starting point, not a mastery score or grade prediction.
Numbers and the number system
Correct answer: -2.7, -2.17, -2.071, -2.07
Ascending means smallest to largest. For negative numbers, the value furthest below zero is smallest: -2.7 < -2.17 < -2.071 < -2.07.
Equations, formulae and identities
Correct answer: 9
The denominator 3 means take the cube root and the numerator 2 means square: 27^(2/3) = (∛27)² = 3² = 9.
Sequences, functions and graphs
Correct answer: -3/4
The radius from (0, 0) to (3, 4) has gradient 4/3. A tangent is perpendicular to the radius, so its gradient is the negative reciprocal, -3/4.
For parents: look at the explanation together. A correct answer is encouraging; a missed answer gives you something specific to work on. Broader practice over time is needed to understand progress.

Source checked: 2026-08-27. The current official specification controls assessment requirements and option choices.
Can parents and students try LearningP before signing up?
Yes. This page offers three original questions from three different skills on this exact course. Each answer has an explanation, followed by a sample heatmap showing what was correct and what to revisit. No account is needed, and taster answers are not saved.
What does the three-question heatmap tell a parent?
It shows the outcome of these three answers and gives a specific skill to discuss or practise next. It is not a full assessment, a mastery score or a grade prediction. Broader practice over time is needed to understand progress.
What does the Pearson Edexcel International GCSE · Modular International GCSE Mathematics route cover?
LearningP currently maps 6 assessed areas for specification 4XMA. The visible topic map below is derived from the verified route; the current official specification remains controlling.
How many LearningP questions support this route?
The verified source bank contains 201 original LearningP question records for this route. Every mapped area meets the current publication minimum and passed the latest blocker and review audit.
Does LearningP reproduce official exam questions?
No. LearningP uses official specifications and assessment materials to map content and demand, while its practice questions and explanations are independently authored.
Can this page predict an exam grade?
No. LearningP reports practice evidence, coverage, strengths and gaps. It does not guarantee or automatically predict examination outcomes.
Where should current assessment information be checked?
Use the official Pearson Edexcel International GCSE · Modular specification and assessment-resource pages linked on this page, together with information supplied by the learner’s school.
