Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents a single multiplication problem where a three-digit number, 426, is to be multiplied by a two-digit number, 55. A large grid accompanies the problem, which provides the structure for the students to organize and calculate the individual components of the multiplication process. The grid is segmented into cells that correlate to each digit’s place value, ensuring that students align their calculations properly. A space is provided at the top for the student to write their name, personalizing the worksheet.

The worksheet is designed to teach students the grid method of multiplication, which breaks down the multiplication process into more manageable parts. By filling in the grid, students learn to multiply each digit of the multiplier with the multiplicand separately and then sum the partial products correctly. This method reinforces the concept of place value and the systematic approach to combining these values to arrive at the final answer. Through practice with this worksheet, students are meant to gain proficiency in multi-digit multiplication, a key arithmetic skill.
