Question 1
What is 2,347 × 6?
Correct answer: A
Multiply each place and regroup: 7 × 6 = 42 (write 2, carry 4), 4 × 6 + 4 = 28 (write 8, carry 2), 3 × 6 + 2 = 20 (write 0, carry 2), 2 × 6 + 2 = 14, so the product is 14,082. 12,842 comes from writing the ones digit of each product and never adding the regrouped digits.

Question 2
What is 36 × 47?
Correct answer: D
Break 47 into 40 + 7: 36 × 40 = 1,440 and 36 × 7 = 252, so 1,440 + 252 = 1,692. 396 comes from multiplying 36 × 4 instead of 36 × 40, which forgets that the 4 stands for 4 tens.

Question 3
Mia used an area model to find 23 × 15.
× 20 3 10 200 30 5 ☐ 15 Which number belongs in the box?
Correct answer: C
The box is where the row for 5 meets the column for 20, so it holds 5 × 20 = 100. Then 23 × 15 = 200 + 30 + 100 + 15 = 345. 25 adds 5 + 20 instead of multiplying.

Question 4
What is 1,847 ÷ 6?
Correct answer: B
6 goes into 18 hundreds 3 times, into 4 tens 0 times, and into 47 ones 7 times with 5 left over: 307 R 5. Check: 6 × 307 + 5 = 1,847. 37 R 5 forgets to write the 0 in the tens place.

Question 5
214 students are going on a field trip. Each van holds 8 students. How many vans are needed so that every student has a seat?
Correct answer: C
214 ÷ 8 = 26 R 6. Twenty-six full vans carry 208 students, and the 6 students who are left still need a seat, so one more van is needed: 27 vans. 26 ignores the remainder.
-
Question 6
A baker has 250 eggs. Each batch of cakes uses 6 eggs. How many full batches can she make?
Correct answer: D
250 ÷ 6 = 41 R 4, because 6 × 41 = 246. The 4 leftover eggs are not enough for another batch, so she can make 41 full batches. A 42nd batch would need 252 eggs, so rounding up is wrong here.
-
Question 7
Ms. Ortiz shares 135 pencils equally among 8 tables. Each table gets as many pencils as possible. How many pencils are left over?
Correct answer: A
135 ÷ 8 = 16 R 7, since 8 × 16 = 128 and 135 − 128 = 7. The question asks for the pencils left over, so the answer is the remainder, 7. 16 is the number of pencils each table gets.
-
Question 8
A store sold 289 boxes of markers. Each box has 8 markers. Which is the best estimate of the number of markers sold?
Correct answer: C
Round 289 to the nearest hundred, 300, and multiply: 300 × 8 = 2,400 (the exact answer is 2,312). 1,600 rounds 289 down to 200, which is much farther away than 300.
-
Question 9
A theater has 24 rows with 18 seats in each row. For one show, 385 tickets were sold, one for each seat. How many seats were empty?
Correct answer: A
First find the number of seats: 24 × 18 = 432. Then subtract the tickets sold: 432 − 385 = 47 empty seats. 432 is the total number of seats, so it skips the second step.
-
Question 10
A factory packs 2,736 crayons into boxes of 8. How many boxes does it fill?
Correct answer: B
2,736 ÷ 8 = 342, and you can check it: 8 × 342 = 2,736. 324 mixes up the tens and ones digits (8 × 324 = 2,592), and 2,728 subtracts 8 once instead of dividing.

Question 11
Ravi has 5 bags with the same number of marbles in each bag, plus 7 loose marbles. He has 92 marbles in all. Which equation can be used to find m, the number of marbles in each bag?
Correct answer: B
5 bags of m marbles is 5 × m, and the 7 loose marbles are added on: 5 × m + 7 = 92. Solving gives 5 × m = 85, so m = 17. 5 × 7 + m would mean 5 groups of 7, which is not what the bags hold.
-
Question 12
A truck carries 64 crates. Each crate holds 25 melons. How many melons does the truck carry?
Correct answer: D
64 × 25 = 64 × 20 + 64 × 5 = 1,280 + 320 = 1,600. 1,220 multiplies only tens by tens (60 × 20) and ones by ones (4 × 5) and leaves out the other two partial products.
Questions you leave blank are not counted as wrong.
