  • With an answer sheet and, if you like, a QR code to the answers
  • At three levels (★ to ★★★) and as group A and B
  • As a single worksheet or as a task on a mixed worksheet
This is how it looks on the worksheet – with new numbers every time.

Your own calculations: explained simply

Here you practise a list of problems chosen by you or an adult. Read the whole problem first: do you need to calculate an answer or fill a gap?

How to work it out

  • Calculate brackets first, then multiplication and division, then addition and subtraction. Work from left to right for operations of equal priority.
  • When you fill a gap, both sides of the equals sign must have the same value.

An example, step by step

(7 + □) · 2 = 20

  1. The whole bracket is multiplied by 2. Work backwards: 20 : 2 = 10.
  2. So the bracket must give 7 + □ = 10. Calculate 10 − 7 = 3.
  3. Check: (7 + 3) · 2 = 10 · 2 = 20.

Understand other variations

Without a gap

For 12 + 3 · 4, first calculate 3 · 4 = 12, then 12 + 12 = 24. Problems may also include decimals and negative numbers.

Your turn

Calculate: 6 + 2 · 5

Show the answer and method

First 2 · 5 = 10, then 6 + 10 = 16.
