Answer in your head, then check. Every explanation cites the official source.

  1. Q1Quantitative problem solving

    What is 3/4 + 5/6?

    1. A19/12
    2. B8/10
    3. C4/5
    4. D11/12
    Show answer

    A. 19/12 Fractions need a common denominator before they are added. The least common denominator of 4 and 6 is 12, so 3/4 becomes 9/12 and 5/6 becomes 10/12. Adding gives 19/12, which is 19/12 as an improper fraction or 1 7/12. Adding the numerators and the denominators separately, as in 8/10, is the usual mistake.

  2. Q2Algebraic problem solving

    Which expression is equivalent to 3(2x − 5) + 4x?

    1. A10x − 5
    2. B10x − 15
    3. C6x − 15
    4. D2x − 15
    Show answer

    B. 10x − 15 Use the distributive property first: 3(2x − 5) = 6x − 15. Then combine like terms, 6x + 4x = 10x, which leaves 10x − 15. Forgetting to multiply the −5 by 3 gives 10x − 5, and leaving out the 4x gives 6x − 15. Only terms with the same variable part can be combined.

  3. Q3Life science

    Which cell structure releases most of the usable energy a cell needs by breaking down glucose?

    1. ARibosome
    2. BCell wall
    3. CMitochondrion
    4. DNucleus
    Show answer

    C. Mitochondrion Mitochondria carry out cellular respiration, the process that breaks down glucose in the presence of oxygen and captures the energy as ATP. That is why cells with high energy needs, such as muscle cells, contain many of them. Ribosomes build proteins, the cell wall gives plant cells structure, and the nucleus stores the genetic instructions.

GED Test Practice FAQ

You need at least 145 on each of the four subject tests, and scores are not averaged across subjects. Each test is scored from 100 to 200. A score of 165–174 is GED College Ready, and 175–200 is GED College Ready + Credit, which could qualify for up to 10 college credit hours (GED.com).

Reasoning Through Language Arts is 150 minutes, including a separately timed 45-minute extended response and a 10-minute break. Mathematical Reasoning is 115 minutes, Science is 90 minutes and Social Studies is 70 minutes (GED Testing Service).

After a failed first attempt in a subject you can take two retests with no restriction between them. If you fail the third or any later retest, you must wait 60 days. Additional state requirements may apply, so check your state's GED policy page (GED.com).

No. These are original multiple-choice practice questions. The real GED also uses drag-and-drop, hot-spot, fill-in-the-blank and drop-down items, and the language arts test includes an extended-response essay, which this bank does not practice. GED Ready is GED Testing Service's own practice test.

Math (quantitative and algebraic problem solving), Reasoning Through Language Arts (reading, editing and argument), Science (life, physical, and earth and space science) and Social Studies (civics and government, US history, economics, and geography). The topic weights follow the published GED content areas.

Yes. Open the exam simulator and sit a timed mock exam of 20 questions built from the free questions, once, with no signup. Unlocking the exam adds full-length runs of 50 questions in 50 minutes (a practice clock), as many as you like, each a new draw from the whole bank.

The exam's agency publishes no topic weights, so it mixes topics in proportion to the question bank, favouring questions you missed before and never repeating one within a run. A retake is a new draw, so you will meet different questions. It is a practice mock exam, not an official replica of the real exam.
