Mixed Operations Word Problems — Free Printable

Mixed-operation word problems are the true test of mathematical reasoning: students must read each problem and decide which operation to apply before computing an answer. Our mixed word problem worksheets blend addition, subtraction, multiplication and division scenarios at each grade level — from Grades 2–3 (add/subtract within 1000) through to Grades 4–5 (multi-step with all four operations). Problems are carefully balanced across operations on every sheet. Answer keys included. Used for weekly problem-solving practice, assessments and homework.

  • Mixed addition and subtraction stories (Grades 2–3)
  • Mixed all-four-operations problems (Grade 4)
  • Two-step mixed problems requiring multiple operations (Grade 5)
  • Problems with unnecessary information (challenge)
  • Problems requiring selecting the correct operation
