3. 3. systematic method for solving these questions probably the first issue that concerns the candidate when facing a numerical reasoning question composed of several pieces of information (figures, tables, charts…) is how to start or, more specifically, where to look at. our advice here is clear: you should start reading very carefully the statement of the question, which will offer you many clues to decide what kind of data you need to use to do your calculations. a little misunderstanding about the information sought or the measurement units at the beginning may be fatal for our purpose. the next step will be to identify the relevant data in the tables and charts. according to the question. we will explain through many examples in subsequent sections some techniques to make this quickly and efficiently. then, you should look at the answer options, to know if it will be possible to make rough estimations to tell apart the right answer, or if you will have to get exact results, depending on how close together the options are. later, we will have to choose the method for our calculations (estimation, rule of three, equation, percentages, intuitive insight…), taking into account the available data and the figures we need to find. finally, we will be able to solve the problem and match our result against the options.
3. approach to numerical reasoning exercises 3. 1. overview in general, with regard to numerical reasoning tests in open competitions for the public administration as well as selection procedures for private companies, we can find three main types of tests, according to the following abilities that they measure: mental calculation: the ability to calculate quicky using basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, and division), and also working with fractions and percentages. data interpretation: the skill to read and analyse properly the information provided in tables, charts and graphs, in a fast manner. numerical reasoning (itself): the talent in combining the two previous proficiencies, mental calculation and data interpretation, to answer a question that, besides, requires our deductive thinking. as we will see later, the most challenging issue of these tests is not the difficulty of the calculations (we only need basic maths), but the time limit
