Two Digit Multiplication by Multiples of 10

6 questions

4th - 4th Grade

Mathematics

This Grade 4 mathematics worksheet gives students focused practice multiplying two-digit numbers by multiples of 10, including 20, 30, and 40. It contains six multiple-choice questions, combining direct equations such as 20 × 17 and 40 × 16 with short word problems about equal groups, including rows of seats and bags of marbles. Students must calculate each product and distinguish the correct answer from plausible computational errors. Use this free printable worksheet to reinforce place-value reasoning and help students connect multiplication equations to real-world grouping situations. It works well for independent practice, a quick skills check, homework, or review after modeling strategies for multiplying by multiples of 10. The worksheet includes a complete answer key so teachers can check understanding efficiently and identify whether students need more support with computation or interpreting word problems.

FAQs

What does this worksheet cover, and how does it help students learn the skill?

This Grade 4 worksheet covers multiplying two-digit numbers by multiples of 10, including 20, 30, and 40. Its six multiple-choice items require students to solve direct equations and apply the same skill to equal-group word problems, building accuracy with products such as 20 × 17, 30 × 25, and 40 × 16.

How can I use this worksheet to teach multiplying by multiples of 10?

First model one equation, such as 20 × 17, by representing 20 as two tens and connecting the representation to the product. Then have students explain how the same reasoning applies to the rows-of-seats and bags-of-marbles problems before completing the remaining multiple-choice questions independently. Ask students to justify why an incorrect option does not match the number of equal groups.

What mistakes should I watch for when students complete this worksheet?

Watch for students dropping or misplacing a zero when multiplying by 20, 30, or 40, or multiplying by the nonzero digit without accounting for its place value. In the word problems, students may also add the numbers or use the number of groups without multiplying by the amount in each group. The multiple-choice distractors can help reveal whether the error is computational or comes from misreading the equal groups.

How do I assign and grade this worksheet?

This worksheet is available as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz on Wayground, so you can choose paper-based or online practice. It includes a complete answer key, and printable submissions can be graded by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app. The printable format can also support schools that are reducing screen time.

How can I differentiate this multiplication worksheet for my students?

Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to adjust font spacing or increase the font size so the six equations and word problems are easier to follow. You can also apply a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language when those options support access to the multiplication tasks and equal-group scenarios.
