You can use all the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to help you find the right answers - you just need to work out which!

1.
A piece of string is 16cm. I cut off 7cm. How long is my string now?
7cm
9cm
10cm
12cm
16 - 7 = 9 so the string is 9cm long
2.
A cake goes in the oven at 12 o’clock. It bakes for 35 minutes. What time did the cake come out of the oven?
Twenty-five past twelve
Twenty-five to twelve
Twenty-five to one
Twenty-five past one
35 minutes after 12 o'clock is 12:35 or twenty-five to one
3.
There are 25ml of medicine in a bottle. A teaspoon holds 5ml. How many teaspoons of medicine are in the bottle?
2
3
4
5
The way to work this one out is to divide 25 by 5
4.
Richard went jogging at 3:30. He jogged for 30 minutes, walked for 10 minutes then jogged again. He arrived home at 4:20. How long was his second jog?
10 minutes
15 minutes
20 minutes
25 minutes
If you add 30 minutes to 3:30 it will be 4:00; add another 10 minutes and it becomes 4:10, so 4:20 is 10 more minutes
5.
Two pieces of string are 10cm long and three pieces of string are 6cm long. What is the total length?
18cm
20cm
38cm
40cm
10 x 2 = 20 and 6 x 3 = 18
20 + 18 = 38
6.
Six wooden bricks weigh 600g. What do 2 bricks weigh?
100g
200g
250g
300g
To calculate you need to find how much one brick weighs so 600g ÷ 6 = 100g, so 2 bricks weigh 200g
7.

400ml
450ml
500ml
550ml
To solve this problem you need to add 350ml + 250ml + 400ml = 1,000ml. Half of 1,000ml is 500ml

42 ÷ 2 = 21
