Multiples - Worksheet
Maths Resource Description
This educational resource is a comprehensive worksheet focused on identifying multiples, designed to enhance the mathematical fluency, reasoning, and problem-solving skills of students. The worksheet presents a series of tasks where students are asked to identify multiples of different numbers such as 2, 3, 5, and 10. For instance, one task requires circling numbers that are multiples of 5 from a list including 25, 52, and 60, among others. Another task involves matching numbers to their correct multiples, such as pairing the number 5 with 25 or 3 with 27. True or false questions further challenge students' understanding, asking them to verify statements like "26 is a multiple of 2" or "55 is a multiple of 10".
Additional exercises on the worksheet encourage students to apply logical thinking and numerical patterns. For example, students must identify the odd number out in a given set and explain their reasoning, such as why 28 might be the odd one out in a set of numbers that are multiples of 3. The worksheet also includes age-related problems that require students to deduce a person's age based on clues involving multiples, such as being a multiple of both 3 and 5 and less than 20 years old. These engaging activities not only test students' knowledge of multiples but also help to develop critical thinking and analytical skills in a mathematical context.
