Mathematics is the most basic and important subject of 9th class, which improves the analytical and problem-solving skills of students. In 2025, the Punjab Textbook Board has released the new Mathematics Pairing Scheme 2025 to provide clear guidance to students about the exam pattern and distribution of marks. This scheme is the same for all education boards of Punjab like Lahore, Faisalabad, Multan, Gujranwala, Sargodha, Sahiwal, Rawalpindi, Bahawalpur, and D.G. Khan.
