Instructions: Work through each activity, showing your written method in the boxes. For long multiplication, multiply by the ones digit and then the tens digit before adding the partial products. For division, use short, clear long-division steps and explain what any remainder means.

1

Long Multiplication: Build the Method

Use long multiplication for each question. Multiply by the ones digit first, then by the tens digit, and add your partial products. Estimate first to check that your answer is sensible.

1. 324 × 12 =

2. 506 × 14 =

3. 1,203 × 15 =

4. 2,416 × 21 =

5. 3,052 × 23 =

2

Long Division: Quotients and Remainders

Use long division for each calculation. Write the quotient and any remainder clearly. For the final question, use the remainder to decide how many complete boxes can be filled and how many books will be left over.

1. 936 ÷ 18 =

2. 1,248 ÷ 24 =

3. 1,475 ÷ 25 =

4. 2,345 ÷ 32 =

5. 1,000 books are packed into boxes of 24. How many full boxes can be packed, and how many books remain?

3

Factors, Multiples and Prime Numbers

Use multiplication facts and divisibility to answer each question. A factor divides a number exactly; a multiple is found by multiplying by a whole number. A prime number has exactly two factors: 1 and itself.

1. List all the factors of 18.

2. List the common factors of 18 and 30.

3. Write the first four positive multiples of 6.

4. Write the common multiples of 4 and 6 that are less than 30.

5. Which of these numbers are prime: 21, 23, 29, 33?

4

Order of Operations

Follow the order of operations: calculate brackets first, then multiplication or division, and finally addition or subtraction. Show enough working to make your steps clear.

1. 6 + 4 × 3 =

2. (6 + 4) × 3 =

3. 36 ÷ 6 + 7 =

4. 5 × (9 − 3) + 2 =

5. 48 ÷ (2 × 4) + 5 =

5

Choose the Calculation

Read each problem and choose the correct calculation before solving it. Show your method and write the answer in the box. Remember to interpret any remainder in the context of the problem.

1. A hall has 18 rows with 24 chairs in each row. How many chairs are there altogether?

2. A shop receives 1,350 pencils and puts 25 pencils in each pack. How many full packs can it make?

3. A school orders 32 boxes of 125 exercise books. How many exercise books does it order?

4. A coach carries 47 pupils. Each minibus seats 16 pupils. How many minibuses are needed?
