Below are 100 practice questions f or y our command of multiplication. I hav e not prov ided practice f or addition and subtraction as y ou can dev ise y our own questions f or these key operations if necessary (y ou might change the sign of the f ollowing sums to make them, f or example, addition instead of multiplication). Ev en if the test that y ou f ace does not include questions of this sty le, they are essential skills and skills that y ou must command if y ou are to triumph in any numeracy test. Work out the f ollowing in y our head as quickly as possible. Do not stop practising until y ou are really quick and accurate. Answers are prov ided on page 244.
