We come across real problems all the time - How long will it take you to walk to school? How much money will you have left if you buy a packet of candies? - but how do we go about solving them? Solving problems is about finding solutions. This quiz gives you some questions based on everyday scenarios and tests your knowledge of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, weights, distances, capacities and time.

1 .
To bake a cake, 250g of flour is required. If a bag of flour is 1kg how much would be left after baking 3 cakes?
250g
500g
600g
750g
3 x 250 = 750
There are 1,000g in a kg so 1,000 - 750 = 250
2 .
A baby needs to take 5ml of medicine 3 times a day. How much medicine does the baby need each day?
10ml
15ml
20ml
25ml
5 x 3 = 15 so three lots of 5ml are 15ml
3 .

First you need to subtract 300ml from 1 liter. As there are 1,000ml in a liter, the answer is 700ml. Divide this by 250ml and the answer is 2 full glasses with 200ml left over

One way to do this is to add the units first (7 + 5 + 2 = 14) and then add the result to the tens (14 + 10 + 20 + 30 = 74)
8 .
Mom weighed 55kg. She lost 500g when she was ill. What does she weigh now?
