Multiplication and Division (2) - Multiply 4 digits by 2-digits (Basic Practice) - Worksheet
Maths Resource Description
The worksheet in question is designed to help children develop their understanding of multiplying four-digit numbers by two-digit numbers. It is a fundamental exercise in enhancing their fluency and precision in mathematical calculations. The children will be required to carry out multiplications and then compare the results, ensuring that they grasp the concept of magnitude and the ability to determine which of two numbers is greater, lesser, or whether they are equal. The layout of the worksheet is already completed, which allows the students to focus solely on the calculation process and the subsequent comparison of the results.
During the exercise, the students will showcase their working out in their books, providing a clear formal layout of their calculations. This methodical approach helps to solidify their understanding and gives them a structured way to approach mathematical problems. Additionally, the worksheet includes a section where children put the symbols for less than (<), greater than (>), or equal to (=) between pairs of calculations to indicate the correct relationship between the results. This practice not only reinforces their multiplication skills but also hones their comparative and analytical abilities. The worksheet culminates with a series of problems that require the children to compare the points based on the number of tokens each character has, further enhancing their ability to apply mathematical operations in practical scenarios.
