Q: Is Kramizo really free for CIE Economics students?

Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, across any board and any subject, with no card required and no trial countdown. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds analytics, but the free plan is genuinely free forever. We make money from the small percentage of students who choose to upgrade — not from selling data or ads.

Q: Are the Economics questions aligned to the CIE IGCSE syllabus?

Every question is written against the published CIE IGCSE Economics syllabus and reviewed for accuracy before being added to the bank. We match the command words (state, describe, explain, evaluate), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'll see on real CIE past papers. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes so students learn exactly what marks are being awarded for.

Question

A worker receives a wage of $15 per hour and works 40 hours per week. What is the worker's gross weekly wage?

Accepted Answer

$600 — Gross weekly wage = hourly wage × hours worked = $15 × 40 = $600. Option A ($450) results from multiplying $15 by 30 hours, a common arithmetic error. Option B ($550) has no clear basis and represents a random distractor. Option D ($650) may result from adding an incorrect overtime figure.
