Answer Key — CCAT Grade 5

1. A — Repeating an experiment checks that results are consistent.
2. C — All three are ridden on water, and so is a paddleboard. Skis, sled and skates are for snow or ice; a bicycle is for land.
3. E — Each number is doubled (×2). 1 × 2 = 2.
4. C — ? must be 57 + 106 = 163, because 163 − 106 = 57.
5. B — The pattern subtracts 5 each time. 30 − 5 = 25.
6. B — In the top row, the figure's fill darkens one step and the figure shrinks. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives B. The others each make a specific mistake: A applies a different rule than the top row shows; C applies only one of the two changes; D the bottom figure with no rule applied; E right change, wrong figure shape.
7. D — Unfold the paper step by step, mirroring every hole across each crease in reverse order. 3 punches through 4 layers leaves 12 holes. The other sheets each draw a specific mistake: A mirrored across the wrong axis; B shows only the punched folded sheet — never unfolded the paper; C one hole drifted off its mirrored position; E doubled the count without the on-crease merge.
8. E — What the three figures share: all figures share the same fill. E shares it too. The others don't: A repeats an exemplar's shape but breaks the shared property; B does not share the property; C matches the shapes but not the shared fill; D solid black instead of the shared property.
9. B — The relationship is "worker to their workplace." chef → kitchen, so doctor → hospital.
10. B — Covering everything important makes it thorough.
11. A — All three are things that block your way, and so is a roadblock. Path, bridge, tunnel and ladder help you get through.
12. A — Each number decreases by 3. 9 − 3 = 6.
13. A — First find ■ = 2. Then ? = 2 × 7 = 14.
14. B — The amount added grows by 1 each step. Adding 4 to 11 gives 15.
15. A — In the top row, a smaller copy appears inside and the figure shrinks. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives A. The others each make a specific mistake: B copies the top row's result instead of transforming the bottom figure; C applies only one of the two changes; D the bottom figure with no rule applied; E applies a different rule than the top row shows.
16. B — Unfold the paper step by step, mirroring every hole across each crease in reverse order. 4 punches through 4 layers leaves 16 holes. The other sheets each draw a specific mistake: A doubled the count without the on-crease merge; C treated the mirror as a slide — hole positions right, orientation never flips; D mirrored across the wrong axis; E shows only the punched folded sheet — never unfolded the paper.
17. D — What the three figures share: all figures share the same fill. D shares it too. The others don't: A solid black instead of the shared property; B repeats an exemplar's shape but breaks the shared property; C does not share the property; E matches the shapes but not the shared fill.
18. D — The relationship is "worker to their workplace." actor → stage, so librarian → library.
19. C — Water shortages bring limits on use.
20. D — All three are parts of an egg, and so is the thin membrane inside the shell. Hen, nest, feather and beak are not parts of an egg.
