Try a sample Two-digit addition and subtraction question
Question 1 — Easy
Anika collected 40 stickers at the school fair. She gave half to her friend and then divided her remaining stickers equally into 4 groups. How many stickers are in each group?
Answer: First, half of 40 is 20, so Anika has 20 stickers remaining. Then 20 ÷ 4 = 5, so each group has 5 stickers. Option A (10) results from dividing the original 40 by 4 without halving first, option C (8) does not follow from either step correctly, and option D (20) is just the result of the first step without completing the second step.
Question 2 — Medium
Priya has 16 grapes. She wants to divide them equally into 4 groups. How many grapes are in each quarter of the total?
Answer: A quarter means one of four equal parts. 16 divided into 4 equal groups gives 4 in each group, so one quarter of 16 is 4. Option A is incorrect because 2 would be one eighth of 16. Option C is incorrect because 8 is one half of 16. Option D is incorrect because 6 does not divide 16 into equal parts.
Question 3 — Hard
Priya has 24 grapes. She wants to divide them equally into 4 bags. How many grapes will go in each bag?
Answer: A quarter of 24 means dividing 24 into 4 equal parts. 24 ÷ 4 = 6, so each bag gets 6 grapes. Option A confuses the number of parts with the answer. Option C comes from dividing by 3 instead of 4. Option D comes from halving 24 instead of finding a quarter.
