How it works
These multiplication division worksheets put × and ÷ on the same sheet, so pupils read the sign before they answer. Half the problems multiply and half divide, drawn from the same tables.

Why mix the two signs
A pupil who knows 6 × 7 = 42 also knows 42 ÷ 6 = 7. The opening sheet sets such facts side by side up to 10 × 10. Begin with × and ÷ mixed: tables 2, 5 and 10, then move to × and ÷ mixed: every fact to 12 × 12. Common Core 3.OA.7 asks grade 3 to multiply and divide within 100 fluently, using that link.
Missing numbers and families
As division and multiplication facts worksheets, the sheets with a blank inside work hardest. Missing number, either sign: 6 × ___ = 42 asks for a factor or a divisor. Fact families: two × facts and two ÷ facts has pupils write both × facts and both ÷ facts.
- For 56 ÷ 8, have pupils ask themselves: 8 times what makes 56?
- Print the two-minute sheet once a week and let each pupil try to beat their own count.
Questions and answers
How do I save these as multiplication and division worksheets PDF files?
Press Print, then choose Save as PDF as the printer. The answer key is saved with the sheet, on its own page. Untick Answer key first if you want the problems alone.
Are there multi digit multiplication and division worksheets here?
Yes, in the last group under Sheet type. One sheet mixes 2-digit by 1-digit products with the matching divisions, such as 85 × 2 and 114 ÷ 6. Another gives 3-digit numbers room to work.
Do the division problems leave remainders?
No. Each division is a multiplication fact turned round, so 42 ÷ 6 comes out at 7 with nothing left. Remainders have a page of their own in the division group.
Who are math multiplication and division worksheets with both signs for?
For a class that has met both operations and now multiplies when the sign says divide. No grade is printed on the paper, so older pupils can use the same sheets to catch up.
