Instructions: Work through each activity in order. Use the examples and prompts to help you choose a method, and show your working in the answer boxes. Check multiplication with division where you can.

Multiples, Factors and Factor Pairs

A multiple is found by counting in equal groups. A factor divides a number exactly, with no remainder. List factor pairs in order, starting with 1.

1. Write the first five positive multiples of 6.

2. Is 4 a factor of 28? Write yes or no.

3. List all the factor pairs of 24.

4. Write the common factors of 18 and 30.

Prime, Composite and Number Properties

A prime number has exactly two factors: 1 and itself. A composite number has more than two factors. A prime factor is a prime number that divides another number exactly.

1. Is 17 prime or composite?

2. Is 21 prime or composite?

3. Which of these is a prime factor of 30: 4, 5 or 9?

4. Write the prime factorisation of 12.

Multiply by 10, 100 and 1,000

When multiplying a whole number by 10, 100 or 1,000, each digit moves to a place value worth 10, 100 or 1,000 times as much. Complete each calculation carefully.

1. 34 × 10 =

2. 206 × 100 =

3. 7 × 1,000 =

4. 4,800 ÷ 10 =

5. 63,000 ÷ 100 =

Multiplication Methods

For a two-digit multiplier, you can split it into tens and ones, then add the partial products. Example: 23 × 4 = (20 × 4) + (3 × 4) = 92. Use a written method for the larger calculations.

1. 326 × 4 =

2. 1,204 × 3 =

3. 47 × 12 =

4. 1,236 × 14 =

Short Division and Remainders

Use short division, working from left to right. If a number does not divide exactly, write the remainder as “r” followed by its value. For a sharing problem, explain what the remainder means.

1. 864 ÷ 4 =

2. 1,248 ÷ 6 =

3. 935 ÷ 5 =

4. 1,007 ÷ 4 =

5. 53 biscuits are packed into bags of 6. How many full bags can be packed, and how many biscuits are left?

Square and Cube Numbers

A square number is made by multiplying a whole number by itself, such as 4 × 4. A cube number is made by multiplying a whole number by itself twice more, such as 2 × 2 × 2. Work out each value.

1. 5² =

2. 8² =

3. 3³ =

4. Is 36 a square number? Write yes or no.
