What this skill builds
These Class 5 Mathematics worksheets focus on multiplying decimals by 10 and 100 within the Decimals Multiplication topic. Children practise seeing multiplication as a place-value shift, not as a trick of “adding zeroes”, so numbers such as 3.6, 0.48 and 12.05 are handled with understanding.
The printable activities include direct calculations, place-value pattern practice, missing-number questions and mixed decimal examples. They help learners build fluency while paying attention to decimal points, zero placeholders and the value of each digit.
Multiplying decimals by 10 and 100 is an important bridge between whole-number multiplication and decimal operations. In these worksheets, children observe that each digit becomes 10 times or 100 times as large: 4.7 × 10 = 47, and 4.7 × 100 = 470. The decimal point is used as a marker of place value, while the digits move to higher-value places.
Progression in the practice
The sheets begin with simpler tenths and hundredths, then include numbers with zeroes in different positions, such as 0.6, 2.05 or 10.8. Questions may ask children to complete products, fill missing factors, compare answers or continue a pattern. This variety helps them connect calculation with reasoning instead of memorising isolated facts.
A parent routine for home
Choose five problems and ask your child to read each number aloud before multiplying. Have them say, “Multiplying by 10 moves every digit one place left,” or “Multiplying by 100 moves every digit two places left.” After writing the answer, ask them to check whether the number has become larger and whether the decimal point is in a sensible position.
Classroom uses for teachers
Teachers can use these printables for morning maths practice, decimals revision, small-group support or quick checks after a lesson on place value. They also work well in maths centres: one station can focus on ×10, another on ×100, and a third on spotting errors in completed answers. Pair discussion is useful because pupils must explain where each digit has moved.
Common errors to watch for
A frequent mistake is adding one or two zeroes without thinking, which can make 3.4 × 10 become 3.40 instead of 34. Some children move the decimal point in the wrong direction, especially when the number is less than 1. Others drop zero placeholders, for example writing 5 instead of 50 for 0.5 × 100. Encourage them to check the size of the answer each time.

Answers and answer key support
After the child completes the worksheet independently, parents and teachers can use the answer support or answer key information to check the work, review mistakes, and choose the next practice step.
Why iBloom worksheets help
iBloom worksheets give repeated, focused practice while still asking children to reason about place value. A child-friendly strategy is: underline the digits, decide whether it is ×10 or ×100, shift the digits one or two places left, then read the answer aloud. This keeps the method simple, visual and connected to decimal understanding.
Helpful answers
Frequently asked questions
What do children learn in these multiplying decimals by 10 and 100 worksheets?
They learn how each digit shifts to a higher place value when a decimal is multiplied by 10 or 100, and they practise writing the correct product with the decimal point in the right position.
Should children move the decimal point or move the digits?
For understanding, it is better to think of the digits moving to the left into larger place values. This avoids the common misconception that the decimal point itself is doing the work.
Are these worksheets suitable for Class 5 decimals multiplication revision?
Yes. They focus specifically on multiplying decimals by 10 and 100, which is a key part of Class 5 decimal multiplication practice and a useful revision skill before more complex decimal products.
What mistake should I check first when my child gets an answer wrong?
Check whether the answer has become larger by the correct amount. For example, multiplying by 10 should make the number ten times as large, so 2.35 should become 23.5, not 2.350.
How can teachers use these worksheets in class?
Teachers can use them for independent practice, small-group reteaching, maths centres, exit tickets or quick revision before introducing multiplication of decimals by whole numbers beyond 10 and 100.
