You can simplify that some more by putting question/answer pairs into a list

qa_pairs = [
    ("What is 4 x 2? ", "8"),
    ("What is 3 x 6? ", "18"),
    #...
]

and then use random.choice() and tuple unpacking

question, answer = random.choice(qa_pairs)

if input(question) == answer: # python 2: replace input with raw_input
    print("correct")
else:
    print("UH-OH!")

You can nest the tuples if you really need other data

qa_pairs = [
    ("What is 4 x 2? ", ("8", 75, 75)),
    ("What is 3 x 6? ", ("18", 75, 75)),
    #...
]

question, answer_and_offset = random.choice(qa_pairs)
answer, userx, dragonx = answer_and_offset
#...
