This quiz has a great collection of word problems that provide some good practice for your reasoning and arithmetic abilities.

Have a pen and paper ready, because you'll definitely be needing those to work out these tough word problems, in addition to your intellect and brainpower, obviously. Well, you are certainly welcome to do some mental gymnastics and do the workings in your head, but I wouldn't recommend that. Believe me, I have tried that and I know. Some things are just easier when you write them out and see them clearly.

Most of the questions in this quiz will only require mathematical ability to solve, while others will require logical reasoning as well. You may need to use a mix of operations—addition, subtraction, multiplication or division—to solve these story problems. When you are ready, start this word problem quiz to find out if you are a good problem solver.
