Numbers & place value

  • Multiplication

If this math page has 5 sections of math problems for 5th graders with an average of 7 questions in each section, can you guess how many problems there will be in all? That’s right, there will be a total of 35 math problems for 5th graders for us to practice. Without realizing it, you just solved one of our first 5th-grade math word problems . Excellent work! Together we will review fifth-grade math problems with decimals, fractions, order of operations, and rounding. We will even consider hard math problems for 5th graders, like multiplying using square models and number lines. Don’t worry about getting the answers right the first time, each section includes math problems for 5th graders with answers if you need a sneak peek. So grab a pad and pencil and let’s begin.

Word problems for 5th graders

Let’s begin by covering math word problems for 5th graders.

Doodle-Blog-NumberIcons_1

Mia’s water bottle can hold 24 ounces of water. She drinks two full water bottles each day. How many total cups of water does Mia drink each day? [Conversions]

math homework help for 5th graders

The playground is made up of four rectangular lots that are each 10 ft by 7 ft. What is the total area of the playground? [Finding area]

Doodle-Blog-NumberIcons_3

 Josh lives 2.5 miles away from the park. Josh rides his bike to the park and back home four days a week. How many miles does Josh ride his bike each week? [Calculations]

Since we are solving word problems, a word should always be in our answer.

In this section, we will cover math problems for 5th graders that use place values, word form to standard form, standard form to word form, and expanded form.

Place value

Which digit in the number 245 is in the hundreds place?

Which digit in the number 4,602 is in the tens place?

Which digit in the number 752 is in the ones place?

Word form to standard form

Standard form to expanded form.

4,000 + 300 + 2 = 4,302

600 + 50 + 4 = 654

20,000 + 2,000 + 300 + 60 + 5 = 22,365

In this section, we will cover fifth-grade math problems that include comparing decimals and rounding decimals to the nearest tenth, hundredth, and thousandths place. Let’s get started.

8.9 and 8.900 are the same.

Remember if the number to the right is 5 or larger, you can borrow and become one digit larger. If the number to the right is between 0 and 4, you can’t borrow and the number remains the same.

In this section, we will review math problems for fifth graders that cover the topics of adding and subtracting two and three-digit numbers using transformation, division using area models, and the order of operations .

Adding and subtracting whole numbers by transformation

A large portion of fifth-grade math problems can be made easier to solve by transformation or changing numbers to make the problem simpler. Let’s practice adding and subtracting two and three-digit numbers by transformation.

How to add numbers using transformation?

When adding or subtracting numbers, look for ways to round to make the problem simpler. Don’t forget what you do to one number, you have to do the opposite to the other. This makes sure the problem stays balanced. Let’s see how this is done. What is 48 + 52? 48 + 2 = 50

52 – 2 = 50 

50 + 50 = 100.

It may be difficult to add 48 + 52 in your head, so we round 48 to 50 by adding 2. Since we added 2 to the first number, we have to make sure to subtract 2 from the second number. So now the problem is 50 plus 50, which is much easier to calculate! 

32 – 2 = 30 68 + 2 = 70 30 + 70 = 100 The answer is 100.

208 – 8 = 200 432 + 8 = 440 200 + 440 = 640 The answer is 640.

321- 1 = 320 199 + 1 = 200 320- 200 = 120 The answer is 120

Division using area models

Don’t know what an area model is? See our area model guide to help with these problems.

Using an area model find the quotient of 365 ፥ 5 =

math homework help for 5th graders

Using an area model find the quotient of 504 ፥ 6 =

Using the area model below, find the quotient of 872 ፥ 2 =

Order of operations

Many people remember the Order of Operations with the acronym PEMDAS- “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally”, with each letter representing an operation: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiply or Divide, Add or Subtract. Solve the following equations using the order of operations.

Remember that the steps Multiply or Divide can be done in any order. Also, the steps Add or Subtract can be done in any order, do the operation that comes first.

Hard multiplication math problems

Some of the hardest math problems for fifth graders involve multiplying: multiplying using square models, multiplying fractions and whole numbers using expanded form, and multiplying fractions using number lines. Let’s practice a few of each!

Multiplying using square models

Multiplying using square models is a method to help students “see” multiplication problems in a simpler way.

Multiply 42 x 35 using the square model below.

math homework help for 5th graders

Multiply 55 x 76 using the square model below.

Multiply 98 x 42 using the square model below.

Multiplying fractions and whole numbers using expanded form

Multiply ½ x 5 using expanded form.

Multiply ⅔ x 6 using expanded form.

Multiply ⅙ x 7 using expanded form.

Multiplying fractions using a number line

Multiply ½ x 4/6 by using a number line.

Are you ready to take on these excellent math problems?

1. Multiplication Word Problem

Amanda has 12 boxes of chocolates. Each box has 24 pieces of chocolate. She wants to share them equally among her 18 friends. How many pieces of chocolate will each friend get?

Solution : To solve this problem, we need to multiply 12 by 24 to find Amanda's total number of pieces of chocolate. Then, we need to divide that number by 18 to find how many pieces of chocolate each friend will get.

12 x 24 = 288

288 ÷ 18 = 16

Therefore, each friend will get 16 pieces of chocolate.

Tip : To check your answer, reverse the operation and multiply 16 by 18 to see if you get back to 288.

2. Division Word Problem

A school bus can carry 48 students. 216 students are going on a field trip. How many buses will transport all the students?

Solution : To solve this problem, we will divide 216 by 48 to find how many buses are needed to transport all the students.

216 ÷ 48 = 4.5

However, we cannot have half a bus, so we must round up to the following number.

Therefore, 5 buses will transport all the students.

Tip : To check your answer, reverse the operation and multiply 5 by 48 to see if you get more than or equal to 216.

3. Fractions Word Problem

A recipe for a cake requires 3/4 cup of sugar. If you want to make one-third of the recipe, how much sugar do you need?

Solution : To solve this problem, we will multiply 3/4 by 1/3 to find how much sugar we need for half of the recipe.

3/4 x 1/3 = 3/12

Therefore, we need 3/12 cup of sugar for half of the recipe.

Tip : To simplify fractions, you can divide the numerator and the denominator by a common factor. For example, 3/12 can be simplified by dividing both by 3, which gives us 1/4.

4. Decimals Word Problem

A pizza costs $12.50 and has 8 slices. If you eat 3 slices, what fraction of the pizza did you eat? What percentage of the pizza did you eat? How much did you pay for the slices that you ate?

Solution : To solve this problem, we will find the fraction, percentage, and cost of the slices we ate.

To find the fraction, we will divide the number of slices we ate by the total number of slices in the pizza.

3 ÷ 8 = 3/8

Therefore, we ate 3/8 of the pizza.

To find the percentage, we will convert the fraction to a decimal and then multiply by 100.

3/8 = 0.375

0.375 x 100 = 37.5%

Therefore, we ate 37.5% of the pizza.

To find the cost per slice, we will divide the price of the pizza by the total number of slices in the pizza. Then, we will multiply that by the number of slices we ate.

12.50 ÷ 8 = 1.5625

1.5625 x 3 = 4.6875

Therefore, we paid $4.6875 for the slices that we ate.

Tip : To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator. For example, 3/8 = 3 ÷ 8 = 0.375

5. Fraction of a whole word problem

A pizza is cut into 12 equal slices. Amy eats 3 slices, Ben eats 2, and Chris eats 4. What fraction of the pizza is left? How many slices are left?

Solution : To find the fraction of the pizza left, we will subtract the fractions that Amy, Ben, and Chris ate from the whole pizza. The whole pizza is 12/12 or 1. Amy ate 3/12, Ben ate 2/12, and Chris ate 4/12. So, we have:

1 - (3/12 + 2/12 + 4/12) = 1 - (9/12) = 1 - (3/4) = 1/4

So, the fraction of the pizza that is left is 1/4. To find how many slices are left, we can multiply the fraction by the total number of slices:

1/4 x 12 = 3

So, there are 3 slices left.

Tip : To subtract fractions with the same denominator, subtract the numerators and keep the denominator. To subtract fractions with different denominators, you must first find a common denominator.

6. Probability word problem

A bag contains 20 marbles: 8 red, 6 blue, and 6 green. What is the probability of randomly picking a red marble from the bag? What is the probability of picking a blue or a green marble?

Solution : To find the probability of an event, we need to divide the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. In this case, the total number of possible outcomes is the number of marbles in the bag, which is 20. The number of favorable outcomes for picking a red marble is the number of red marbles in the bag, which is 8. So, we have:

P (red) = 8/20 = 2/5

So, the probability of picking a red marble is 2/5. To find the probability of picking a blue or green marble, we need to add the probabilities of picking a blue marble and a green marble. The number of favorable outcomes for picking a blue marble is the number of blue marbles in the bag, which is 6. The number of favorable outcomes for picking a green marble is also 6. So, we have:

P (blue) = 6/20 = 3/10

P (green) = 6/20 = 3/10

P (blue or green) = P (blue) + P (green) = 3/10 + 3/10 = 6/10 = 3/5

So, the probability of picking a blue or a green marble is 3/5.

Tip : To add fractions with the same denominator, add the numerators and keep the denominator. To add fractions with different denominators, you must first find a common denominator.

7. Geometry and measurement word problem

A rectangular prism has a length of 10 cm, a width of 6 cm, and a height of 4 cm. What is its volume? What is its surface area?

Solution: The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula: length × width × height. In this case, the length is 10 cm, the width is 6 cm, and the height is 4 cm. Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is:

10 cm × 6 cm × 4 cm = 240 cm³

The surface area of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula: 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l is length, w is width, and h, is height. In this case, we have:

2(10 cm × 6 cm) + 2(10 cm × 4 cm) + 2(6 cm × 4 cm) = 248 cm²

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is  240 cubic centimeters , and its surface area is  248 square centimeters .

8. Addition and Subtraction Word Problem

Lucy has 12 red apples and 8 green apples in her basket. She gives 5 red apples and 3 green apples to her friend Amy. How many apples does Lucy have left in her basket?

Solution: To solve this problem, we need to use addition and subtraction. First, we need to find out how many apples Lucy had before giving some to Amy. We can do this by adding the number of red apples and the number of green apples:

12 + 8 = 20

Lucy had 20 apples in total.

Next, we will determine how many apples Lucy gave Amy in total. We can do this by adding the number of red apples and the number of green apples that she gave:

Lucy gave 8 apples to Amy.

Finally, we will find out how many apples Lucy has left in her basket. We can do this by subtracting the number of apples that she gave from the number of apples that she had:

20 - 8 = 12

Lucy has 12 apples left in her basket.

Tip : When solving word problems involving addition and subtraction, it helps to identify the keywords that indicate what operation to use. For example, words like "in total," "altogether," "combined," or "sum" indicate addition, while words like "left," "remain," "difference," or "take away" indicate subtraction.

9. Multiplication and Division Word Problem

A pack of pencils contains 12 pencils. How many packs of pencils are needed to supply a class of 30 students if each student needs 2 pencils?

Solution: To solve this problem, we will use multiplication and division. First, we will determine how many pencils are needed for the class. We can do this by multiplying the number of students by the number of pencils per student:

30 x 2 = 60

The class needs 60 pencils in total.

Next, we will determine how many packs are needed to provide 60 pencils. We can do this by dividing the number of pencils by the number of pencils per pack:

60 ÷ 12 = 5

The class needs 5 packs of pencils.

Tip : When solving word problems involving multiplication and division, it helps to identify the keywords that indicate what operation to use. For example, words like "each," "per," "every," or "times" indicate multiplication, while words like "how many,” "groups," "quotient," or "divide" indicate division.

10. Fractions and Decimals Word Problem

A pizza is cut into 8 equal slices. John eats 3 slices, Mary eats 2 slices, and Tom eats 1 slice. What fraction of the pizza is left? What decimal number is equivalent to this fraction?

Solution : To solve this problem, we will use fractions and decimals. First, we will find out how many slices of pizza are left. We can do this by subtracting the number of slices that were eaten from the total number of slices:

8 - (3 + 2 + 1) = 8 - 6 = 2

There are 2 slices of pizza left.

Next, we will find out what fraction of the pizza is left. We can do this by writing the number of slices left as the numerator and the total number of slices as the denominator:

This fraction represents the part of the pizza that is left.

Finally, we will determine what decimal number is equivalent to this fraction. We can do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator:

2 ÷ 8 = 0.25

This decimal number represents the same part of the pizza that is left.

Tip : When solving word problems involving fractions and decimals, it helps to remember that fractions and decimals are different ways of representing parts of a whole.

To convert a fraction to a decimal, you can divide the numerator by the denominator.

To convert a decimal to a fraction, write the decimal as a numerator over a denominator of a power of ten (such as 10, 100, or 1000) and simplify if possible.

24/7 Homework Help: Get Help Online

The downsides of getting free homework help.

When we aren’t able to deal with the pile of hometasks ourselves, we think about getting any help. If our parents had to ask their parents or other seniors for help, then we have a wonderful opportunity to check, for example, Chegg: homework help of any kind can be found there. Also there are dozens of other platforms that offer homework help of different types. For example, we all love to scroll through Reddit threads sometimes. However, apart from gossiping and meaningless talks, there might be something important and serious there as well.

Reddit homework help is also quite popular, as most tasks in schools and colleges are taken from the same books. But have your ever thought that free homework help might be dangerous for you? First of all, it’s a wrong answer to the task. Just imagine that you copy something without thinking, and bring it to class. Oops, apparently, the answer is wrong, but you can’t even explain how you were working on this task, because you wasn’t…

One of the most tricky aspects here is math homework help. Sometimes, the right answer is not enough. A student should follow a certain algorithm when solving the task. And professional services will help him with that. No need to worry about any type math: algebra homework help, geometry and other subjects are available.

As a result, you will save your time, avoid mistakes and errors, pay a reasonable price and, mot importantly, will be confident in the correct answer. How all these became possible?

Advantages of modern technologies

We are very lucky to live in the data-driven era, when anything we want is available with one click of the mouse (in fact, you don’t even need a mouse). College homework help is available online at any time you need it. Forget about time zones, don’t think about living in a small town, when the power of the whole world is in front of you! Get help with tasks of any complexity, regardless of the subject. Not need to be a pro in accounting: homework help will change the way you think about studies!

Choose you subject and get the best homework help: math, physics, biology, chemistry, literature, etc.

Second-grader’s impossible math homework question leaves parents stumped: ‘help this mama out’.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

I’ll be the first to admit that math isn’t my strongest subject.

I’d even go as far as saying I’m pretty much innumerate (illiterate but for numbers – not a real word but go with it.) 

With that being said, as a full-grown adult, I thought I would be able to figure out the ‘impossible’ year two maths question that’s doing the rounds on the internet right now. 

But I was wrong. So, so wrong. 

It turns out, I’m not in the minority here. Hundreds of fellow adults were also scratching their heads trying to solve the task, which has been deemed ‘unsolvable’ by many. 

yellow piece of paper with writing on it

“Please help this mama out!”

It all started when a mom shared her child’s homework question to the  r/askmath  Reddit. 

The question starts off by referencing a previous equation that read: “200 + 60 + 9 = 269.”

Seems simple, right?

But here’s where it gets tricky.

Never miss a story.

The next question encourages students to “stretch your thinking” by writing another addition equation.

It instructed: “The equation must have a 1-, a 2- and a 3-digit addend and use all of these digits.”

The digits in question included; 6, 6, 2, 2, 8, 8, 0, 0 and 0.

The mom shared a photo of the question next to some working out that’s been scribbled out. She captioned the post: “Second-grade math question that we can’t figure out. The teacher asked for an answer as well that included the numbers. I am so stuck!! This is probably so easy, but after an hour I’m at my wits’ end! Second grade!!!”

She added: “Please help this mama out.”

“This is year two homework?!”

People then rushed to the comments to give the equation a crack and share their thoughts on the question as a whole. 

“Fasten your seatbelts… we’re going from ‘Are you smarter than a fifth grader?’ to ‘Are you smarter than a second grader?'” one user quipped.

A second critiqued the question, saying: “Okay but what the heck is this supposed to teach the kids? Guess and check?”

“Yeah, that is not something I would expect very many second graders to get. But then again, that is the ‘Stretch your thinking’ question for this worksheet,” mentioned a third user.

A fourth then made the point, “The unnecessary hyphens after the one and two kinda makes the question confusing, especially for a child.”

“What the hell are addends?” someone else asked, echoing everyone’s thoughts. 

“I’m assuming your kid was taught what addends were before this homework was given? So they should have been able to at least explain that part considering that, from the comments, most people don’t have a clue what those are,” someone replied. 

So, you’re probably dying to know the answer by now. And, thankfully, a smart cookie in the comments was able to help out. 

Apparently, it was as simple as just recreating a similar formula to the previous answer. 

“800 + 60 + 2 = 862,” wrote the user. 

The OP praised them, saying, “Why did you make it look so easy?! We were about to start WWIII over here and you just whipped it out like the obvious answer that it is. Thank you for saving my tired brain and also my child’s teacher from a very worded email. You win hero of the day!”
