Easy is creating a large collection of arithmetic problems.
More difficult is a collection of mathematical word problems. This could be crowdsourced.
Such questions could be incorporated into mathematics education. But beware of cultural biases sneaking into wording making them difficult for those outside the culture.
Vaguely relatedly, answering such questions could be Turing-Test-like challenges for natural language processing.
Such questions could be used for mathematics competitions.
More difficult would be to create a random generator of word problems never generating the same question twice. Technically, this is the reverse of the Turing Test task above.
More difficult is to create an interactive problem poser. All the necessary information is not given initially. The answerer must recognize what information is needed and ask for it. (The reverse task is sometimes seen as a UI for AI expert systems which query a human for symptoms to form a diagnosis.)
