Preface
We are pleased to launch a thoroughly revised edition of this workbook. We welcome
feedback from students, teachers, educators and parents. For improvements in the next
edition, please send your suggestions at info@crestolympiads.com.

CREST Olympiads is one of the largest Olympiad Exams with students from more than 25
countries. The objective of these exams is to build competitive spirit while evaluating
students on conceptual understanding of the concepts.

We strive to provide a superior learning experience, and this workbook is designed to


complement the school studies and prepare the students for various competitive exams
including the CREST Olympiads. This workbook provides a crisp summary of the topics
followed by the practice questions. These questions encourage the students to think
analytically, to be creative and to come up with solutions of their own. There’s a previous
year paper given at the end of this workbook for the students to attempt after completing the
syllabus. This paper should be attempted in 1 hour to get an assessment of the student’s
preparation for the final exam.

Let’s make a circle around “n”. How many “n” can you find? Let’s count them. Circle them all.

Can you name any 2 objects beginning with “n”? Think of more such words, if you are able
