Word Problem Worksheetss for Multiplication
Multiplication word problems are one of the more challenging applied math topics for grade school children to understand. The language used for a multiplication word problem can be challenging for some students.
These worksheets start with very fundamental multiplication problems to help surmount this challenge. Once these multiplication word problems are well understood, proceeding to worksheets that mix multiplication and division, and even addition and subtraction, can provide excellent practice in insuring that students understand how each operation needs to be selected appropriately based on the problem setup.
The worksheets are grouped into four variants with unique problems on each sheet. As you incrementally work the sets of worksheets, the arithmetic will involve larger numbers, although the basic multiplication word problem skills are unchanged.

Word Problems on Multiplication
Word problems on multiplication for fourth grade students are solved here step by step.
Problem Sums Involving Multiplication: 1. 24 folders each has 56 sheets of paper inside them. How many sheets of paper are there altogether?
We can add 56 sheets 24 times
Since multiplication is repeated addition we can multiply 56 and 24 to get the answer.
[Sometime, more than one calculation is required.] Therefore, altogether there are 1344 sheets.
2. A carton holds 24 packets of biscuits. Each packet has 12 biscuits. How many biscuits can be packed in 45 cartons?
In one carton we can pack 24 × 12 biscuits.
In 45 cartons, we can pack 24 × 12 × 45 biscuits.
24 × 12 = 288
Therefore, altogether there are 12,960 biscuits.
3. There are 226 pencils in a packet. How many pencils are there in 212 such packets?
Consider the following Examples on Word Problems Involving Multiplication:
1. A book costs $ 67. How much will be paid for 102 such books? Solution:
The cost of one book = $ 6 7 6 7 Number of books = 1 0 2 × 1 0 2 The cost of 102 books = $ 67 × 102 1 3 4 = $ 6834 + 6 7 0 0 6 8 3 4
Therefore, cost of 102 books = $ 6834
2. A bicycle costs $ 215. How much will be paid for 87 such bicycles?
Solution:
The cost of one bicycle = $ 2 1 5 2 1 5 Number of bicycle = 8 7 × 8 7 The cost of 87 bicycles = $ 2 1 5 × 8 7 1 5 0 5 = $ 6834 + 1 7 2 0 0 1 8 7 0 5 Therefore, cost of 87 bicycles = $ 18705
3. The monthly salary of a man is $ 2,625. What is his annual income by salary?
Monthly income = $2,625 2 6 2 5 Annual income = $2,625 × 12 × 1 2 = $31,500 5 2 5 0 + 2 6 2 5 0 3 1 5 0 0
Therefore, annual income = $ 31,500
4. A chair costs $ 452 and a table costs $ 1750. What will be cost of 15 chairs and 30 tables?
(i) Cost of one chair = $ 452 Cost of 15 chairs = $ 452 × 15 = $ 6,780 (ii) Cost of one table = $ 1,750 Cost of 30 tables = $ 1,750 × 30 = $ 52,500 Therefore, cost of 15 chairs and 30 tables = $ 6,780 + $ 52,500
