    I never saw multiple choice math problems in class/homework, but it seemed common for standardized testing like this, where only a small writing section would be manually graded. Everything else (on those tests) was multiple choice or similar.

      The primary goal of standardized testing companies, like every other company, is profit, so they avoid having to spend money on someone manually grading something as much as possible.
