What is a math problem generator?

A math problem generator writes printable practice sets for a grade and topic you choose. This one writes 1 to 40 drill or word problems at an easy, medium, or hard level, with an answer key on a separate page.

Problems by grade

Pick the grade and describe the topic, for example:

  • 1st grade: addition and subtraction within 20

  • 4th grade: multi-digit multiplication

  • 5th grade: fractions with unlike denominators

  • 6th grade: ratios

  • 8th grade and Algebra 1: linear equations

  • Algebra 1 and 2: quadratics

Drill or word problems

Ask for fact practice, multi-step word problems, or a mix. For word problems, add a context such as sports or cooking so the scenarios fit your class.

How the math problem generator works

  1. 1

    Describe the set

    The topic and the format, such as two-step equations or fraction word problems about cooking.

  2. 2

    Set the details

    Grade, difficulty, and number of problems. It usually takes 10 to 20 seconds.

  3. 3

    Check and print

    Work a few problems yourself, then print the student copy and the answer key.
