Mathematics
This Grade 5 mathematics worksheet builds fluency with multiplying whole numbers by multiples of 10 and 100, such as 15 × 40, 12 × 300, and 25 × 200. Students use place-value reasoning to find products with zeros, then apply the skill across 10 multiple-choice questions, 2 fill-in-the-blank problems, and 2 open-ended problems. The mix of question types lets teachers check both quick calculation and independent problem solving. The open-ended items, including 1,100 × 40 and 250 × 3, give students opportunities to show how they reason rather than only select an answer. This free printable worksheet is designed for Grade 5 math practice, review, or a short assessment and includes a complete answer key.

This Grade 5 worksheet focuses on multiplying whole numbers by multiples of 10 and 100, including problems such as 15 × 40, 12 × 300, and 25 × 200. Its 14 items—10 multiple choice, 2 fill-in-the-blank, and 2 open-ended—help students use place value to calculate products and demonstrate their reasoning.
Begin by modeling one problem, such as 12 × 300, and have students identify the nonzero factors and the zeros before finding the product. Then use the multiple-choice items for guided practice, ask students to explain a selected answer, and finish with the fill-in-the-blank and open-ended problems to check independent understanding.
Students may miscount the zeros or fail to account for the place value of a factor such as 40, 60, 200, or 300. Watch especially for errors in larger products such as 1,100 × 40 and 12 × 300, as well as cases where students choose a distractor from the multiple-choice items without checking whether the product has the correct magnitude.
The worksheet is available as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz on Wayground, and it includes a complete answer key for all 14 items. You can grade printable submissions by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app, while the digital quiz supports online assignment and grading.
