Missing Multiplier

Worksheet Description

This worksheet adopts a circular design, segmented like a pie chart, to practice multiplication by ten. Each segment within the circles is filled with a number that is to be multiplied by ten, the number situated at the center of the circles. The multiplication results are to be written in the middle ring, which is currently blank. The worksheet provides four sets of these circular multiplication problems, each circle containing numbers that increase in difficulty as the student progresses.

The worksheet teaches students the concept of multiplying various numbers by ten, focusing on the pattern that the product will always end with a zero. It challenges students to fill in the middle ring with the correct answers, reinforcing their understanding of the multiplication process. The visual layout helps students in associating the multiplication of ten with a pattern, making it easier to remember the times table. This exercise also serves to build confidence in their ability to perform multiplication with larger numbers, as they progress through the circles from top to bottom.
