Hi,

Your question is a little unclear. Math in CAT 2017 will be in the form of the Quantitative Aptitude section.

There will be anything between 30 and 35 questions asked from the section.

Some of the topics that you must practice questions from include Logarithm, Mensuration, Binomial Theorm, Geometry, Number Systems, Percentages, Progressions, Trigonometry, Probability, Ratio and Proportions, Quadratic Equations etc.

Practice Hard!
