About this worksheet

Multiplication and Division Word Problems is an engaging math worksheet designed to help students practice solving real-world scenarios using multiplication and division skills. This interactive and printable worksheet features a fun ski trip theme, following characters Peyton and Poppy as they prepare for their adventure. The worksheet consists of five word problems spread across three pages, each requiring students to not only calculate the answer but also write down the corresponding multiplication or division equation.

The problems in this worksheet cover various aspects of multiplication and division, including equal groups, repeated addition, and fair sharing. Students are challenged to interpret the given information, determine the appropriate operation, and solve the problem step-by-step. By connecting math concepts to relatable situations like packing for a trip, this worksheet helps students understand the practical applications of multiplication and division in everyday life. The gradual increase in complexity of the problems also encourages critical thinking and problem-solving skills development.

Curriculum

Common Core standards covered

3.OA.A.1

Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 _ 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 _ 7.

3.OA.A.2

Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 56 Ö 8 as the number of objects in each share when 56 objects are partitioned equally into 8 shares, or as a number of shares when 56 objects are partitioned into equal shares of 8 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a number of shares or a number of groups can be expressed as 56 Ö 8.

3.OA.A.3

Use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems in situations involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.1

3.OA.A.4

Determine the unknown whole number in a multiplication or division equation relating three whole numbers. For example, determine the unknown number that makes the equation true in each of the equations 8 _ ? = 48, 5 = _ Ö 3, 6 _ 6 = ?
