These multiply decimals by whole numbers worksheets for Grade 5 give students two focused ways to practice decimal multiplication. One page uses a shuffled product-matching format with eight calculations, while the second applies the same skill to four short word problems involving length, cost, water, and measurement.
Multiply decimals by whole numbers worksheets for Grade 5
The matching worksheet asks students to solve expressions such as 11 × 0.84, 13 × 2.06, and 18 × 2.75, then draw a line to the correct product. The decimal factors include hundredths and values greater than one, and the whole-number factors range from 11 through 18. Students need to calculate accurately and distinguish among products such as 9.24, 26.78, 24.14, and 49.5.
Before multiplying, students who need additional support with the digits to the right of the decimal point can review decimal place value to thousandths. That practice provides a useful foundation for interpreting decimal factors before applying multiplication.
Decimal multiplication in word problems
The second worksheet moves from numerical expressions to context. Students find the total length of 19 ribbons measuring 0.85 meter each, the cost of 28 notebooks at 4.65 dollars each, the amount of water in 29 bottles holding 1.75 liters each, and the width of 30 tiles that are 2.35 feet wide. Each problem includes space for work and a separate answer line, so students can show the multiplication before recording the final result.
Together, the two pages keep the skill narrow while changing the task format: students first match computed products and then apply the same decimal-by-whole-number multiplication in real situations. For earlier place-value preparation with decimals greater than one, the decimals greater than one worksheets provide related representation practice.
