Multi-Digit Multiplication Practice

Once basic facts are solid, multi-digit multiplication is the next big hurdle — and it's where careless mistakes pile up if a student isn't consistent with the standard algorithm. These problems mix 2-digit × 2-digit, 2-digit × 3-digit, and 3-digit × 3-digit so your child stays sharp on lining up partial products and carrying correctly. We recommend scratch paper for every problem; the goal here isn't speed but accuracy. By the end of fourth grade, students should be able to work through any of these in under two minutes with a 90% accuracy rate.
