Quick Maths: how to play
🧮 Quick Maths: 1 to 8 players.
How it works
Mental arithmetic against the clock. A sum appears on the TV and four possible answers appear on your phone. Tap the right one as quickly as you can. The sums start easy, with adding and taking away, and get harder with times tables, division and percentages as the rounds go on.
Tips for winning
- Look at the last digit of the sum. It can often rule out two of the four answers.
- For percentages, find 10% first, then add or halve.
- The sums get harder, so bank the easy points early.
Who it suits
Good for school-age children and adults who want a brain workout.
