Four in Four - Multiplication Set D 2dp x whole number
Maths Resource Description
The "Four in Four" series is a collection of multiplication exercises intended for Year 6 students, designed to enhance their arithmetic skills, specifically with multiplying two-decimal-place numbers by whole numbers. Each worksheet in the set presents four multiplication problems that the students are challenged to solve within a four-minute time frame. The exercises include a variety of decimal numbers multiplied by single-digit whole numbers, ensuring that students practice and consolidate their understanding of decimal multiplication. For example, problems such as multiplying 42.17 by 7 or 13.28 by 9 require students to apply precision and speed to calculate the products correctly.
The series is structured with multiple sheets, each containing a fresh set of problems to work through, allowing for continuous practice and reinforcement of the concept. The answers for each sheet are provided, which enables immediate feedback for the students or the educator administering the exercise. This feedback is crucial for identifying any areas where students may need additional support. Sample answers from the sheets include calculations like 23.25 x 2 equalling 46.5 or 32.56 x 4 resulting in 130.24, demonstrating how the multiplication of decimals extends students' numerical proficiency beyond whole numbers.
