About this worksheet

Homework for 5th grade math on multi-digit multiplication and division (Common Core 5.NBT.5 and 5.NBT.6). Three products use the standard algorithm with partial products shown, climbing from 348 × 24 to 1,428 × 36. Three quotients follow with two-digit divisors, from 864 ÷ 24 up to 3,456 ÷ 32, whose middle zero in the quotient (108) catches students who skip a step. Two problem-solving questions close the set: total seating for a school musical, and a rice warehouse packing 2,150 kilograms into 35-kilogram sacks with a remainder to interpret.

Curriculum objectives covered

5.NBT.5

“Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.”

Questions 1 to 3 are straight standard-algorithm products, and question 7 embeds 28 × 45 inside a two-step story.

5.NBT.6

“Find whole-number quotients of whole numbers with up to four-digit dividends and two-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.”

Questions 4 to 6 divide four-digit and three-digit dividends by two-digit divisors, and question 8's 2,150 ÷ 35 makes students interpret the remainder of 15.

What's inside this worksheet

Part 1: Multi-Digit Multiplication

Students compute 348 × 24, 615 × 47 and 1,428 × 36 with the standard algorithm, recording both partial products (for the first: 1,392 and 6,960) before summing.

Part 2: Multi-Digit Division

Three quotients with two-digit divisors: 864 ÷ 24 = 36, 1,575 ÷ 25 = 63, and 3,456 ÷ 32 = 108, where the zero in the tens place is the step most students miss.

Part 3: Problem Solving

Question 7 combines operations: 28 rows of 45 fixed seats plus 125 folding chairs seats 1,385 people for the spring musical. Question 8 divides 2,150 kilograms of rice into 35-kilogram sacks, asking for both the 61 full sacks and the 15 kilograms left unpacked.

Answer key

Every solution is worked in full, including each bring-down step of the long division and the remainder check 35 × 61 = 2,135.

How teachers use it

Weeknight homework

Eight questions is a fair evening's load. The worked key means a parent can check the bring-down steps too, not only the final answers.

Catching the missing zero

Question 6 is the diagnostic: 3,456 ÷ 32 produces a quotient of 108, and students who write 18 skipped the tens-place zero. Check that one question before anything else.

Remainder talk

Question 8 refuses a clean answer on purpose. Ask what the warehouse should actually do with 15 leftover kilograms, and you get a short, real conversation about what remainders mean.
