Four operations: question bank

Practise adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing: column methods with large numbers, remainders, choosing the right operation, multi-step problems in Indian contexts, estimating and checking, money and units, and the vocabulary of the operations. Every question has a worked solution. Try it first, then compare your method. Prices, crop yields, farm costs and bills in these questions are illustrative round figures chosen to make the arithmetic clear, not real market rates.
