As previously stated, there are 60 questions in the math section of the ACT exam.  The math questions break down into the following areas:

• 24 pre-algebra and basic algebra questions
• 14 plane geometry questions
• 10 intermediate algebra questions
• 8 coordinate geometry questions
• 4 trigonometry questions

These questions will not be ordered from easiest to hardest.  They will be mixed together.  You are allowed to use a calculator to help you solve math questions on the ACT.  If you can avoid a calculator on the easier math problems, you’ll save yourself some time since the section is timed into a 60-minute window.  All the questions in the math section are worth the same amount of points, so make sure you answer the questions you are confident that you know.
