Solve the sum, then find its number word in the grid
Math Word Search mixes a sum sheet with a classic letter grid. Each clue is a problem such as 64 - 46, and its answer is hidden in the grid as a word, so you first work out eighteen and then hunt for the letters E-I-G-H-T-E-E-N. Words run across, down or diagonally, which keeps your eyes busy while the arithmetic stays light.
How to play Math Word Search
- Solve the next equation in the clue list.
- Spell the answer as a number word and look for it in the letter grid.
- Drag from the first letter to the last to mark the word.
- Find every answer to finish the puzzle, or pick the harder setting for a timed challenge.
Controls
| Mouse drag | Select a word from its first letter to its last |
|---|---|
| Finger swipe | Mark words on a touch screen |
Tips to play better
- Hunt for the rarest letter first: the V in ELEVEN or the W in TWELVE is easier to spot than another E.
- Number words share endings like TEEN and TY, so check the first letters to tell SIXTEEN from SIXTY.
- Scan the diagonals on purpose; they are the placements that slip past most players.
- When a word refuses to appear, use the hint instead of rereading the whole grid.
