According to Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development, this stage would be the Formal Operational Stage.

Explanation:

In the formal operational stage, children are able to think abstractly and think concretely. They are able to reason on their own and come to conclusions using mathematical calculations. This occurs around the age of 11 years, though it may occur around 12 years of age, according to different sources.
