Welcome to your Year 7 Mathematics quiz focused on Ancient Egypt! This quiz blends mathematical concepts with historical knowledge of Ancient Egyptian culture. Answer the following questions to the best of your ability.
In Ancient Egypt, the area of a rectangular plot of land was calculated using the formula length multiplied by width. If a field measures 30 metres in length and 20 metres in width, what is the area of the field in square metres?
The Ancient Egyptians used a base-10 numbering system. If you were to represent the number 245 in Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, using symbols for 200, 40, and 5, how many symbols altogether would you need to use?
Ancient Egyptian pyramids were often built with a square base. If the base of the Great Pyramid measures 230 metres on each side, what is the perimeter of the base of the pyramid?
The ancient Egyptians divided their day into 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness. If one hour in their timekeeping system was equivalent to 60 minutes like ours, how many minutes were there in a full day according to their system?
The Great Pyramid of Giza was originally about 146.6 metres tall. If a new pyramid was built that was three times taller, what would be the height of the new pyramid in metres?
The area of the field is 600 square metres.
You would need 3 symbols to represent the number 245 in Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.
The perimeter of the pyramid's base is 920 metres.
There were 1440 minutes in a full day according to their system.
The height of the new pyramid would be 439.8 metres.
Good luck!
