This game asks the players to estimate the answer to addition, multiplication, and percentage questions. Choose difficulty level, question types, and time limit. Estimator Four is one of the Interactivate assessment games.

Old Egyptian Maths Cats

Ancient Egyptians knew fractions like 1/2 or 1/4 ((one piece of a pie).
But to make fractions like 3/4, they had to add pieces of pies like 1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4.

For some reason, they never repeated the same fraction when adding; ie they never wrote: 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 3/4

This website presents a range of Egyptian maths problems for you to solve. Good luck!
