347 × 23 → split 23 into 20 + 3. 347 × 20 = 6,940. 347 × 3 = 1,041. Add the two parts: 6,940 + 1,041 = 7,981. So 347 × 23 = 7,981.

Exercise 5 of 8 · 10 questions

Find the mistake in each child’s working, and write the correct answer.

Write the answer

Here’s one done for you

Question: A student divides 620 ÷ 40 and writes ‘quotient 15, remainder 20’. Is this right? → Check by multiplying: 40 × 15 = 600, and 600 + 20 = 620, so it does match. But the remainder, 20, must also be smaller than the divisor, 40 - it is, so this answer is actually correct. Always do both checks: the multiplication must match, and the remainder must be smaller than the divisor.

  1. 1)Sana multiplies 234 × 12. She works out 234 × 10 = 2,340 and 234 × 2 = 468, but adds them as 2,708. Find her mistake and give the correct answer.
  2. 2)A student divides 5,000 ÷ 250 and writes ‘quotient 22, remainder 0’. Check this and correct it if needed.
  3. 3)A student divides 999 ÷ 45 and writes ‘quotient 20, remainder 99’. What is wrong with this answer?
  4. 4)A student divides 4,567 ÷ 123 and writes ‘quotient 37, remainder 26’. Check this by multiplying back, and correct it if needed.
  5. 5)A student multiplies 305 × 40 and writes the answer as 1,220. Find the mistake and give the correct answer.
  6. 6)A student multiplies 999 × 9 and writes the answer as 8,901. Find the mistake and give the correct answer.
  7. 7)A student divides 8,760 ÷ 235 and writes ‘quotient 36, remainder 300’. What is wrong with this answer?
  8. 8)A student multiplies 123 × 123 and writes the answer as 14,529. Find the mistake and give the correct answer.
  9. 9)Rahul solves ▢ × 15 = 345 by writing ▢ = 345 + 15 = 360. What operation should he have used instead, and what is the correct answer?
  10. 10)A student says the remainder of 3,210 ÷ 32 is −2. Can a remainder be negative? Give the correct answer.

Answers

  1. 1) 2,340 + 468 = 2,808, not 2,708 - she added incorrectly. The correct answer is 2,808.
  2. 2) 250 × 22 = 5,500, not 5,000, so the quotient is wrong. The correct answer is quotient 20, remainder 0.
  3. 3) A remainder can never be equal to or larger than the divisor - 99 is bigger than 45. The correct answer is quotient 22, remainder 9.
  4. 4) 123 × 37 = 4,551, and 4,567 − 4,551 = 16, not 26. The correct remainder is 16.
  5. 5) She multiplied 305 × 4 but forgot to shift the digits one place left for the extra zero in 40. The correct answer is 12,200.
  6. 6) This is a table-fact slip. The correct answer is 8,991.
  7. 7) The remainder, 300, is larger than the divisor, 235 - that means another 235 could still be taken out. The correct answer is quotient 37, remainder 65.
  8. 8) This is a multiplication slip. The correct answer is 15,129.
  9. 9) To undo multiplication he should divide, not add: ▢ = 345 ÷ 15 = 23.
  10. 10) No, a remainder is never negative. The correct answer is quotient 100, remainder 10.

Answer each question, showing the multiplication check where asked.

Write the answer

Here’s one done for you

Check whether 512 ÷ 15 = 34 remainder 2 is correct. → Multiply the quotient by the divisor: 15 × 34 = 510. Add the remainder: 510 + 2 = 512, which matches the dividend, and 2 is smaller than 15. The division is correct.

  1. 1)A division problem: 4,567 ÷ 123 = 37 remainder 16. Check this by multiplying, and show whether it is correct.
  2. 2)Check whether 9,999 ÷ 100 = 99 remainder 99 is correct, showing your multiplication check.
  3. 3)A friend says the remainder in a division can be equal to or bigger than the divisor, as long as the quotient is right. Is this true? Explain using 999 ÷ 45.
  4. 4)Check whether 7,654 ÷ 321 = 23 remainder 271 is correct.
  5. 5)A student divided 3,210 ÷ 32 and got quotient 100, remainder 10. Check this using multiplication, and confirm whether the remainder is valid.
  6. 6)Explain in one sentence why a remainder can never be equal to or larger than the divisor.
  7. 7)A division gives quotient 45 and remainder 0. What does a remainder of 0 tell you about the division?
  8. 8)Check whether 8,760 ÷ 235 = 37 remainder 65 is correct.
  9. 9)A student says multiplication and division ‘undo’ each other, so 456 × 23 can be checked by dividing the answer by 23. What should the result of that check be?
  10. 10)Without dividing, how can you tell that 4,900 ÷ 35 will leave no remainder?

Answers

  1. 1) 123 × 37 = 4,551, and 4,551 + 16 = 4,567, which matches 4,567. The division is correct.
  2. 2) 100 × 99 = 9,900, and 9,900 + 99 = 9,999, which matches 9,999. The division is correct.
  3. 3) No. 999 ÷ 45 gives quotient 22 and remainder 9, and 9 is smaller than 45. If the remainder were 45 or more, another whole 45 could still be taken out, so the quotient would need to be bigger.
  4. 4) 321 × 23 = 7,383, and 7,383 + 271 = 7,654, which matches 7,654. The division is correct.
  5. 5) 32 × 100 = 3,200, and 3,200 + 10 = 3,210, which matches. The remainder, 10, is also smaller than the divisor, 32, so the answer is valid.
  6. 6) If the remainder were equal to or larger than the divisor, one more full group could still be taken out, so the quotient would need to be bigger.
  7. 7) It tells you the dividend divides exactly (evenly) into the divisor, with nothing left over.
  8. 8) 235 × 37 = 8,695, and 8,695 + 65 = 8,760, which matches 8,760. The division is correct.
  9. 9) 456 × 23 = 10,488. Dividing 10,488 by 23 should give back 456 exactly - and it does, confirming the multiplication is correct.
  10. 10) 35 × 14 = 490, so 35 × 140 = 4,900, which is exactly 4,900 - so the division leaves no remainder.

While your child works

  • A remainder of zero is still worth writing down - some children skip stating it when it happens to come out exact.
  • If long multiplication is shaky, revisit the column method from Class 4 before this worksheet rather than during it.
  • The multiple-choice exercise works well as a quick five-minute check on its own, separate from the full worksheet.
Before you print it

What is on this worksheet

8 exercises, 88 questions, about 65 minutes. Every exercise has an answer key, printed on its own page so it can be kept back. 8 exercises start with a question already worked out, so you can check the method before helping.

The same topic at other levels

Most of these topics are taught over several years rather than in one. If this sheet is too hard or too easy, the same idea at another level is usually the fix.

Questions parents ask

About this worksheet

Does this worksheet include remainders?

Yes. Several of the division questions do not divide exactly, and a child is expected to state the quotient and the remainder, matching how NCERT teaches division from Class 4 onward.

How large are the numbers on this worksheet?

Multiplication goes up to 3-digit by 3-digit and division up to 4-digit by 3-digit, the full range Class 5’s syllabus covers.

Can I print just the answer key?

Yes, the PDF places the answer key on its own page, separate from the questions, so it can be printed or withheld on its own.

Does this Class 5 Maths worksheet come with answers?

Yes. Every exercise has a full answer key, and it prints on its own page at the end rather than beside the questions - so you can hand your child the sheet and keep the answers back. Some exercises also show one question already worked out, with the method rather than just the result, which is the part most answer keys leave out.

Is there a free printable PDF?

Yes, and there is no sign-up, no email and no account. The download button at the top of the sheet gives you the whole thing - all 88 questions across 8 exercises, plus the answer key - laid out to print on A4.

How long does this worksheet take?

About 65 minutes for 88 questions, though that is a guide rather than a target. It is designed to be split: the exercises are ordered so stopping halfway still leaves a complete piece of work, which matters more than finishing at this age.

Can I use it if my child is in a different class?

Often, yes - these topics are taught across several years and schools vary in when they arrive. Judge by the questions rather than the class on the label. If the first exercise is a struggle the level below is the better start, and the same topic at other levels is linked further up this page.
