The Quantitative Aptitude section of the SSC CHSL (Combined Higher Secondary Level) Exam evaluates the mathematical and analytical skills of the candidates. This section is designed to test the numerical ability and problem-solving skills of the candidates. The topics covered in this section are as follows:


This topic includes questions related to numbers, their properties, divisibility rules, factors, multiples, and various types of numbers such as integers, fractions, decimals, etc.


Questions on simplifying mathematical expressions and approximating values are covered in this topic. Candidates are required to perform basic arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.


This topic covers questions related to algebraic expressions, equations, and inequalities. Candidates need to solve linear equations, quadratic equations, and problems based on algebraic identities and formulas.


Questions on percentage calculations, percentage change, profit and loss, discount, and simple interest are included in this topic. Candidates should have a good understanding of percentage concepts and their applications.


This topic covers questions on ratio, proportion, and variation. Candidates should be able to solve problems based on direct proportion, inverse proportion, and their applications in various real-life situations.


This topic includes questions on finding the average of numbers, average speed, average weight, and other related concepts. Candidates should be able to solve problems based on average calculations.


Questions on work efficiency, work done, and time taken to complete a task are covered in this topic. Candidates should be able to solve problems related to work and time calculations.


This topic covers questions on speed, distance, and time calculations. Candidates should be able to solve problems related to average speed, relative speed, and solving equations involving speed, distance, and time.


Questions on basic geometrical concepts such as lines, angles, triangles, circles, polygons, and their properties are included in this topic. Candidates should be familiar with the formulas and theorems related to geometry.


This topic covers questions on the measurement of various geometric shapes such as squares, rectangles, triangles, circles, cubes, cylinders, cones, and spheres. Candidates should be able to calculate the area, perimeter, volume, and surface area of these shapes.

In addition to these topics, the Quantitative Aptitude section may also include questions on data interpretation, probability, permutation and combination, and other miscellaneous topics. It is essential for candidates to have a strong foundation in basic mathematical concepts and practice solving a variety of problems to excel in this section of the SSC CHSL Exam.
