Primary 3 Mathematics Quiz - Multiplication Division
Answer Key
Section A: Multiplication (1–10)
1. 6 × 7 = 42 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Recall of 6 times table. 6 × 7 = 42.
2. 8 × 4 = 32 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Recall of 8 times table. 8 × 4 = 32.
3. 45 biscuits ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 9 × 5 = 45 There are 9 packets and each has 5 biscuits. Total = 9 × 5 = 45 biscuits.
Common mistake: Adding 9 + 5 = 14 instead of multiplying.
4. 7 × 3 = 21 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Recall of 7 times table. 7 × 3 = 21.
5. 32 pages ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 4 × 8 = 32 Meiling reads 4 pages each day for 8 days. Total = 4 × 8 = 32 pages.
Common mistake: Adding 4 + 8 = 12 instead of multiplying.
6. 9 × 6 = 54 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Recall of 9 times table. 9 × 6 = 54.
7. 30 chairs ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 5 × 6 = 30 There are 5 rows with 6 chairs in each row. Total = 5 × 6 = 30 chairs.
8. 3 × 8 = 24 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Recall of 3 times table. 3 × 8 = 24.
9. 28 cupcakes ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 7 × 4 = 28 The baker bakes 7 trays with 4 cupcakes on each tray. Total = 7 × 4 = 28 cupcakes.
10. 5 × 5 = 25 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Recall of 5 times table. 5 × 5 = 25.
Section B: Division (11–17)
11. 36 ÷ 6 = 6 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Think: 6 × ? = 36 → 6 × 6 = 36, so 36 ÷ 6 = 6.
12. 45 ÷ 5 = 9 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Think: 5 × ? = 45 → 5 × 9 = 45, so 45 ÷ 5 = 9.
13. 7 stickers ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 28 ÷ 4 = 7 28 stickers shared equally among 4 friends. Each friend gets 28 ÷ 4 = 7 stickers.
Common mistake: Dividing 4 ÷ 28 instead of 28 ÷ 4.
14. 56 ÷ 8 = 7 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Think: 8 × ? = 56 → 8 × 7 = 56, so 56 ÷ 8 = 7.
15. 6 bags ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 30 ÷ 5 = 6 30 oranges packed 5 per bag. Number of bags = 30 ÷ 5 = 6 bags.
16. 72 ÷ 9 = 8 ✅ (2 marks)
Working: Think: 9 × ? = 72 → 9 × 8 = 72, so 72 ÷ 9 = 8.
17. 5 sweets ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 40 ÷ 8 = 5 40 sweets shared equally among 8 children. Each child gets 40 ÷ 8 = 5 sweets.
Section C: Multiplication and Division with Remainders (18–20)
18. 37 ÷ 5 = 7 remainder 2 ✅ (3 marks)
Working: Step 1: Think: 5 × ? is closest to 37 without going over. Step 2: 5 × 7 = 35 (5 × 8 = 40, which is too big) Step 3: 37 − 35 = 2 Step 4: So 37 ÷ 5 = 7 remainder 2.
Marking: 1 mark for quotient 7, 1 mark for remainder 2, 1 mark for correct method/working shown.
Common mistake: Writing remainder as 37 − 30 = 7 (using wrong multiple).
19.
(a) 4 bracelets ✅ (1 mark)
Working: 25 ÷ 6 = 4 remainder 1 Think: 6 × 4 = 24 (6 × 5 = 30, which is too big) Siti can make 4 bracelets.
(b) 1 bead left over ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 25 − 24 = 1 After making 4 bracelets (using 24 beads), there is 1 bead left over.
Marking: Part (a): 1 mark for correct answer. Part (b): 1 mark for correct subtraction, 1 mark for correct remainder.
20.
(a) 6 full cartons ✅ (1 mark)
Working: 50 ÷ 8 = 6 remainder 2 Think: 8 × 6 = 48 (8 × 7 = 56, which is too big) The farmer can pack 6 full cartons.
(b) 2 eggs left over ✅ (2 marks)
Working: 50 − 48 = 2 After packing 6 full cartons (using 48 eggs), there are 2 eggs left over.
Marking: Part (a): 1 mark for correct answer. Part (b): 1 mark for correct subtraction, 1 mark for correct remainder.

Notes for Tutors
- Section A tests recall of multiplication tables (2–9) and simple word problems involving multiplication. These are foundational skills expected by mid-P3.
- Section B tests division as the inverse of multiplication. Students should use known multiplication facts to solve division problems.
- Section C introduces division with remainders, which is a key P3 concept. Students must show working to earn full marks. Acceptable methods include: listing multiples, repeated subtraction, or using multiplication facts to find the closest product.
- Common errors to watch for:
- Confusing multiplication and division in word problems (e.g., adding instead of multiplying).
- Dividing in the wrong order (e.g., 4 ÷ 28 instead of 28 ÷ 4).
- Forgetting to state the remainder in Section C.
- Choosing a quotient that makes the product exceed the dividend (e.g., saying 37 ÷ 5 = 8 remainder −3).
