Multiplication and Division (2) - Multiply 4 digits by 2-digits - Worksheet

This worksheet is designed to help children enhance their multiplication skills, specifically focusing on multiplying four-digit numbers by two-digit numbers. The worksheet presents a series of word problems that require students to apply their understanding of multiplication to solve real-world scenarios. For instance, one problem asks students to calculate the total number of books across 12 bookshelves, each containing 1132 books. Another problem presents a scenario where a store has 2011 boxes of pens, with each box containing 16 pens, and students must determine the total number of pens. These problems are crafted to challenge students' ability to identify the correct numbers to multiply and to perform multistep calculations accurately.

Further exercises on the worksheet include a variety of contexts such as calculating the earnings from theater ticket sales, the production output of a tyre factory over a set number of days, and the number of tangerine trees in a garden based on its acreage. Each problem is carefully constructed to encourage students to demonstrate fluency and precision in their calculations. The worksheet also includes the solutions to these problems, allowing students to check their work and understand where they may have made any errors. For example, to find out how many tyres a factory will produce in 37 days, students multiply the daily production of 5328 tyres by 37, resulting in a total of 197136 tyres. These exercises are aimed at developing students' numerical reasoning and problem-solving skills.
