This worksheet teaches students to multiply and divide whole numbers by 10, 100 and 1000 and by multiples of 10, explaining the answer by how the digits move in a place value chart. The worksheet is split into warm-up questions, standard questions and then extension questions to test you.
The concepts it covers:
- Multiplying by 10 moves every digit one place to the left: 46 × 10 = 460. A zero fills the empty ones place.
- Multiplying by 100 moves the digits two places left, and by 1000 three places left.
- Dividing by 10 moves every digit one place to the right: 450 ÷ 10 = 45.
- To multiply by a multiple of 10, use a basic fact, then multiply by 10: 6 × 30 = 6 × 3 × 10 = 180.
What your child will practise:
- Multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000.
- Multiplying by multiples of 10, such as 4 × 60.
- Using basic facts to multiply two multiples of 10.
- Finding missing numbers in multiplication and division sentences.
- Solving problems with boxes, packs and measurements.
Every section opens with a worked example, and the download includes a full answer key with step-by-step solutions and teaching notes on the mistakes students most commonly make.
