    They're answers, not guesses

    I kept thinking, what's the catch? Then realized that the main challenge is to correctly interpret the questions. That is a skill that many students and younger adults seem to struggle with these days. They're no longer taught to think.

    The formatting of these quizzes seriously needs to change because both side margins are cut off. Very irritating.

    On a phone, the left and right sides of the question images are cut off, sometimes removing numbers. Please, BP, fix it!

    It would be easier if I didn't have to guess the numbers because of weird formatting

    You're right, the formatting sucks. But at least on Chrome, you can look at a preview of any image. Makes it a lot easier.

    German third-graders should be able to solve all the arithmetric ones. (I'm afraid not all of them are)

    5th question is "what is 0% of 100".on my screen. Not "10% of 100"

    Two of the questions were ambiguous and required brackets
