Match multiplication tasks
On this page children practise matching a multiplication expression with its word-problem description or equal-groups diagram. Start with the short method and the examples, then use the online practice or print a worksheet with answers.
How to solve this
- Matching multiplication tasks means pairing equations that describe the same situation: 3×4 and 4×3 both equal 12.
- Look for equal products and commutative pairs, or equations that describe the same word-problem context.
- Check that every equation in a matched pair gives the same product before connecting them.
Examples
3 × 8 = 24, 8 × 3 = ?
24
6 × 7 = 42, 7 × 6 = ?
42
