About this worksheet
Eight expressions on cards with one line for every step, so kids show their work and teachers can see exactly where a mistake happened. The answer key writes out every step in red. Expect it to take fourth graders about 15 to 20 minutes with careful work.
On this sheet
8 problems, starting with 1 2 × 8 - 10 + 4, 2 9 × 9 + 4 + 6, 3 9 × (7 - 5) ÷ 9, 4 3 ÷ (10 ÷ 10) + 7, 5 5 × 4 + (10 + 5), 6 (7 - 2) × 5 + 5, 7 6 ÷ (4 + 2) × 7, 8 8 + (7 × 5) + 6. The answers to all of them are on page 2.
Tips for using it
- Underline the part you will do first before you start calculating.
- Rewrite the expression after every step so nothing gets lost.
- Remember that multiplication and division are equals: whichever comes first from the left goes first.
