Advanced Arithmetic
Now that we have reviewed some mathematical fundamentals and some algebra, it is time to jump into
our review of the more advanced arithmetic concepts you will find on the SAT. Many questions on the
Math Test test concepts you learned in junior high school, such as averages and proportions. Some
difficult questions build on these basic concepts by requiring you to use charts and data to obtain your
numbers or combine multiple techniques. In this chapter, we will review the arithmetic concepts you’ll
need to know for the SAT and show you how to apply these concepts when working with charts and
data.All of the questions in this chapter represent the kinds of questions that appear in the Calculator
section of the test.
