How it works
Make the multiplication worksheets grade 4 classes need: pick a sheet type, from 2-digit × 1-digit up to 4-digit × 1-digit and 2-digit × 2-digit, the two sizes the standards set for fourth grade. The answer key is page 2.

4th grade multiplication worksheets: sizes and standards
Common Core 4.NBT.5 sets two sizes: up to four digits by one digit, and two digits by two digits, shown with equations, arrays or area models. The standard algorithm waits for grade 5 (5.NBT.5). Texas 4.4(D) sets the same sizes but names the standard algorithm, so the Sheet type menu holds box sheets and column sheets.
Multiplication first, then division
Among 4th grade math worksheets, multiplication comes before division here. The last group holds the multiplication and division worksheets grade 4 classes use for review: Fact warm-up to 12 × 12 and Missing side of a rectangle, where an area of 252 and a side of 6 give 42.
- Keep Problems at 12 or lower for 2-digit × 2-digit. Pupils need room for two rows of working and a sum.
- Have pupils estimate before they multiply. Knowing 48 × 62 is about 3,000 catches an answer of 29,760 faster than reworking it.
Questions and answers
Does this page make 4th grade multiplication and division worksheets too?
Yes. The division group has four sheets, from 2-digit ÷ 1-digit with no remainder up to 4-digit ÷ 1-digit with remainders, such as 2,715 ÷ 4 = 678 R 3. Common Core 4.NBT.6 and Texas 4.4(F) both stop grade 4 division there.
Should fourth graders use the area model or the standard algorithm?
Follow your standards. The Common Core expects area models and place value strategies in grade 4. Texas also expects the standard algorithm. The arithmetic is the same: the four boxes of 34 × 13 (300, 40, 90 and 12) total 442 either way.
Which 4th grade math multiplication worksheets come first?
Start with Fact warm-up to 12 × 12. The Common Core expects every product of two one-digit numbers from memory by the end of grade 3 (3.OA.7), and each multi-digit problem is built from those facts. Then move to 2-digit × 1-digit, no regrouping.
