The Even Bigger Times Table Challenge 3

The Even Bigger Times Table Challenge 3 is an engaging and rigorous mathematics exercise designed for Year 5 students to test their proficiency with multiplication, division, and square numbers. This timed challenge, created by KS2Gems in 2020, consists of 100 questions that students are encouraged to complete within a five-minute timeframe. The questions cover a range of calculations including basic multiplication facts, such as 2 x 3 and 4 x 1000, to more complex problems like 120 x 8 and 100 x 9. Division questions vary from straightforward ones like 24 ÷ 10 to more challenging ones such as 144 ÷ 12.

In addition to multiplication and division, the challenge includes square numbers, for example, 9² and 13², and tasks students with solving these quickly and accurately. Other questions require the application of division with decimals and scaling by powers of ten. The worksheet is structured to record the time taken if completed in less than five minutes, and at the end, students can tally their correct answers to achieve a score out of 100. The Even Bigger Times Table Challenge 3 is an excellent tool for teachers to assess students' fluency in arithmetic and for students to practice and improve their quick recall of times tables and related mathematical concepts.
