Practising maths without a calculator

Practising with a non-calculator maths quiz builds the habits exam papers reward: mental arithmetic, exact fractions, and algebra worked by hand. Questions that look simple on a screen often need a clear method on paper.

  • Practise exact fractions, percentages and decimals without a calculator.
  • Check each answer by estimating first, then working it through.
  • Redo questions you missed a day later to see what you remember.
  • Export a printable version when you want to work on paper.
Example non-calculator maths quiz questions
What is 3/4 of 28?21. Divide 28 by 4 to get 7, then multiply by 3 to get 21.
Work out 0.6 × 0.5.0.3. Multiply 6 by 5 to get 30, then place the decimal point so there are two decimal places in total, giving 0.30.
Solve 2x + 7 = 19.x = 6. Subtract 7 from both sides to get 2x = 12, then divide both sides by 2.
A triangle has a base of 10 cm and a height of 6 cm. What is its area?30 cm². The area is half of base times height, so one half of 10 × 6 = 30.
A right-angled triangle has shorter sides of 6 cm and 8 cm. How long is the hypotenuse?10 cm. Add 36 and 64 to get 100, and the square root of 100 is 10.

Built from your material

Questions come from the pages you upload, so the quiz matches your course, not a generic textbook.

Explanations for every answer

Each question shows why the correct answer works, so you can spot the step where your working went wrong.

Export when you need to

Paid plans export to PDF or DOCX for printing, and to QTI or Moodle XML for a learning platform.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, DOCX, slides, plain text or a photo of your worksheet.

Choose the question type

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, then generate the quiz.

Practise and review

Work through the questions, then read the explanations for any you missed.

If you were hoping for a ready-made printable sheet, the more useful option is one built from your own material. Upload the topic you are revising and the quiz will focus on the methods your course actually covers, with answers and explanations you can check.

Mix question types so you practise both recall and method. Do a short set daily, review the explanations for every miss, and return to weak topics until the working feels routine.

Frequently asked questions

How do I practise long multiplication without a calculator?

Break one number into tens and units, multiply each part separately, then add the results. Estimating the answer first helps you spot a major slip.

How can I check an answer when I cannot use a calculator?

Reverse the operation, such as multiplying back after dividing, or use a rough estimate to see whether the result is plausible. Checking the units and sign also catches many errors.

Can I export a non-calculator quiz to PDF or Word?

Yes, PDF and DOCX export are included on the Plus plan. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on the Pro plan.

Is there a free plan?
