Answers
Primary 5 Mathematics Quiz - Multiplication Division (Answer Key)
Total Marks: 40
Section A: Multiple Choice Questions (10 × 1 mark = 10 marks)
1. Answer: (4) 15 372
Working:
427 × 36
= 427 × (30 + 6)
= (427 × 30) + (427 × 6)
= 12 810 + 2 562
= 15 372
2. Answer: (2) 70
Working:
5 600 ÷ 80
= 560 ÷ 8 (divide both by 10)
= 70
3. Answer: (3) 3 500 × 30 = 105 000
Reasoning:
3 482 rounds to 3 500 (nearest hundred)
29 rounds to 30 (nearest ten)
3 500 × 30 = 105 000
This is the closest estimate among the options.
4. Answer: (2) 90
Working:
7 200 ÷ (40 × 2)
= 7 200 ÷ 80
= 720 ÷ 8
= 90
5. Answer: (1) 2 880
Working:
Biscuits in 1 box = 24 × 15 = 360
Biscuits in 8 boxes = 360 × 8 = 2 880
6. Answer: (2) 70
Working:
6 300 ÷ 90
= 630 ÷ 9
= 70
7. Answer: (2) 180
Working:
Other number = 12 600 ÷ 70
= 1 260 ÷ 7
= 180
8. Answer: (2) 450 × 600
Working:
4 500 × 60 = 270 000
Check options:
(1) 450 × 6 = 2 700 ✗
(2) 450 × 600 = 270 000 ✓
(3) 45 × 6 000 = 270 000 ✓ (also mathematically correct)
(4) 45 × 600 = 27 000 ✗
Note: Both (2) and (3) give 270 000. The intended answer following the pattern of moving zeros is (2) 450 × 600.
9. Answer: (3) 30 000
Working:
1 250 × 24
= 1 250 × 20 + 1 250 × 4
= 25 000 + 5 000
= 30 000
10. Answer: (2) 720
Working:
8 640 ÷ 12
12 × 700 = 8 400
8 640 - 8 400 = 240
12 × 20 = 240
So 700 + 20 = 720
Section B: Short Answer Questions (10 × 2 marks = 20 marks)
11. Answer: 93 312 (2 marks)
Working:
3 456 × 27
= 3 456 × 20 + 3 456 × 7
= 69 120 + 24 192
= 93 312
Marking: 1 mark for correct method (partitioning), 1 mark for correct final answer.
12. Answer: 270 (2 marks)
Working:
9 720 ÷ 36
Long division:
36 × 200 = 7 200
9 720 - 7 200 = 2 520
36 × 70 = 2 520
So 200 + 70 = 270
Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct final answer.
13. Answer: 213 360 (2 marks)
Working:
5 080 × 42
= 5 080 × 40 + 5 080 × 2
= 203 200 + 10 160
= 213 360
Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct final answer.
14. Answer: 260 (2 marks)
Working:
14 560 ÷ 56
56 × 200 = 11 200
14 560 - 11 200 = 3 360
56 × 60 = 3 360
So 200 + 60 = 260
Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct final answer.
15. Answer: 5 850 g (2 marks)
Working:
325 × 18
= 325 × 10 + 325 × 8
= 3 250 + 2 600
= 5 850
Marking: 1 mark for correct multiplication, 1 mark for correct answer with unit.
16. Answer: 52 (2 marks)
Working:
2 340 ÷ 45
45 × 50 = 2 250
2 340 - 2 250 = 90
45 × 2 = 90
So 50 + 2 = 52
Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct final answer.
17. Answer: 194 800 (2 marks)
Working:
4 872 rounded to nearest ten = 4 870
38 rounded to nearest ten = 40
4 870 × 40 = 194 800
Marking: 1 mark for correct rounding, 1 mark for correct estimated product.
18. Answer: 90 m (2 marks)
Working:
Area = Length × Breadth
12 600 = 140 × Breadth
Breadth = 12 600 ÷ 140
= 1 260 ÷ 14
= 90
Marking: 1 mark for correct formula/method, 1 mark for correct answer with unit.
19. Answer: 90 (2 marks)
Working:
7 200 ÷ 8 = 900
900 = _____ × 10
_____ = 900 ÷ 10 = 90
Marking: 1 mark for finding 7 200 ÷ 8 = 900, 1 mark for finding the missing number.
20. Answer: 11 100 (2 marks)
Working:
1 850 × 6
= 1 850 × 3 × 2
= 5 550 × 2
= 11 100
Marking: 1 mark for correct multiplication, 1 mark for correct final answer.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Place value errors in multiplication: When multiplying by tens/hundreds, remember to add zeros correctly (e.g., 427 × 30 = 12 810, not 1 281).
- Division by multiples of 10: Simplify by cancelling zeros first (e.g., 5 600 ÷ 80 = 560 ÷ 8).
- Order of operations: Always do brackets first, then multiplication/division, then addition/subtraction.
- Estimation: Round numbers as instructed (nearest ten, hundred, etc.) before calculating.
- Units: Always include units in final answers for word problems (g, m, bags, etc.).
- Multi-step problems: Show all steps clearly. Find intermediate answers before the final answer.
