Answer Key: Primary 4 Mathematics Quiz - Multiplication Division

Section A: Multiple Choice Questions (5 questions × 2 marks = 10 marks)

1. B) 1,404

  • Explanation: 234 × 6 = (200 × 6) + (30 × 6) + (4 × 6) = 1,200 + 180 + 24 = 1,404.
  • Common mistake: Students may misplace the digits when adding, e.g., choosing 1,204 if they forget to carry over.

2. B) 630

  • Explanation: 5,040 ÷ 8 = 630. Think: 8 × 630 = 5,040. Using long division: 8 goes into 50 six times (48), remainder 2; bring down 4 to make 24; 8 goes into 24 three times (24), remainder 0; bring down 0; 8 goes into 0 zero times.
  • Common mistake: Students may forget the zero in the quotient, choosing 63 instead.

3. B) 104

  • Explanation: 1,248 ÷ 12 = 104. Think: 12 × 100 = 1,200, remainder 48; 12 × 4 = 48; total 100 + 4 = 104.
  • Common mistake: Students may misplace the decimal or forget to include the remainder.

4. B) 3 × 2,045

  • Explanation: "3 groups of 2,045" means 2,045 is taken 3 times, which is multiplication: 3 × 2,045.
  • Common mistake: Students may confuse multiplication with addition (A) or division (C).

5. A) 280

  • Explanation: Multiply in any order: 7 × 8 = 56; 56 × 5 = 280. Or: 8 × 5 = 40; 40 × 7 = 280.
  • Common mistake: Students may make a calculation error, e.g., 7 × 8 = 56, then 56 × 5 = 280 (correct). Some may forget to multiply all three numbers.
