Fifth-grade math students may have memorized multiplication facts in earlier grades, but by this point, they need to understand how to interpret and solve word problems. Word problems are important in math because they help students develop real-world thinking, apply several math concepts simultaneously, and think creatively, notes ThinksterMath . Word problems also help teachers evaluate their students' true understanding of math.
Fifth-grade word problems include multiplication, division, fractions, averages, and a variety of other math concepts. Section Nos. 1 and 3 provide free worksheets students can use to practice and hone their skills with word problems. Section Nos. 2 and 4 provide the corresponding answer keys to those worksheets for ease of grading.
Math Word Problems Mix
Print the PDF: Math Word Problems Mix
This worksheet provides a nice mix of problems, including questions that require students to exhibit their skills in multiplication, division, working with dollar amounts, creative reasoning, and finding the average. Help your fifth-grade students see that word problems don't have to be daunting by going over at least one problem with them.
For example, problem No. 1 asks:
"During the summer holidays, your brother earns extra money mowing lawns. He mows six lawns an hour and has 21 lawns to mow. How long will it take him?"
The brother would have to be Superman to mow six lawns an hour. Nevertheless, since this is what the problem specifies, explain to students that they should first define what they know and what they want to determine:
- Your brother can mow six lawns an hour.
- He has 21 lawns to mow.
To solve the problem, explain to students that they should write it as two fractions:
6 lawns/hour = 21 lawns/x hours
Then they should cross multiply. To do this, take the first fraction's numerator (top number) and multiply it by the second fraction's denominator (bottom number). Then take the second fraction's numerator and multiply it by the first fraction's denominator, as follows:
6x = 21 hours
Next, divide each side by 6 to solve for x:
6x/6 = 21 hours/6 x = 3.5 hours
So, your hard-working brother would need only 3.5 hours to mow 21 lawns. He's a speedy gardener.
Math Word Problems Mix: Solutions
Print the PDF: Math Word Problems Mix: Solutions
This worksheet provides the solutions to the problems students worked in the printable from slide No. 1. If you see that students are struggling after they turn in their work, show them how to work a problem or two.
For example, problem No. 6 is actually just a simple division problem:
"Your mom bought you a one-year swimming pass for $390. She’s making 12 payments of how much money to pay for the pass?"
Explain that, to solve this problem, you simply divide the cost of a one-year swimming pass, $390 , by the number of payments, 12 , as follows:
$390/12 = $32.50
Thus, the cost of each monthly payment that your mom makes is $32.50. Be sure to thank your mom.

This worksheet contains problems that are a bit more challenging than those on the previous printable. For example, problem No. 1 states:
"Four friends are eating personal pan pizzas. Jane has 3/4 left, Jill has 3/5 left, Cindy has 2/3 left and Jeff has 2/5 left. Who has the most amount of pizza left?"
Explain that you first need to find the lowest common denominator (LCD), the bottom number in each fraction, to solve this problem. To find the LCD, first multiply the different denominators:
4 x 5 x 3 = 60
Then, multiply the numerator and denominator by the number needed for each to create a common denominator. (Remember that any number divided by itself is one.) So you would have:
- Jane: 3/4 x 15/15 = 45/60
- Jill: 3/5 x 12/12 = 36/60
- Cindy: 2/3 x 20/20 = 40/60
- Jeff: 2/5 x 12/12 = 24/60
Jane has the most pizza left: 45/60, or three-fourths. She'll have plenty to eat tonight.

If students are still struggling to come up with the right answers, it's time for a few different strategies. Consider going over all of the problems on the board and showing students how to solve them. Alternatively, break students up into groups—either three or six groups, depending on how many students you have. Then have each group solve one or two problems as you circulate around the room to help. Working together can help students think creatively as they mull over a problem or two; often, as a group, they may arrive at a solution even if they struggled to solve the problems independently.

Grade 5 math fun & engaging number patterns and sequences worksheets
Are you ready to explore the amazing world of number patterns and sequences? If your students are in 5th grade, they probably already know some basic facts about numbers, such as how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide them. But do they know that numbers can also form beautiful and fascinating patterns and sequences that can help them understand math better and have fun simultaneously? We’ll discover all with these Grade 5 math fun & engaging number patterns and sequences worksheets .
In this section of MathSkills4Kids, we will show you what number patterns and sequences are, how to teach them in grade 5, why they are fun and easy to learn, how to use them to solve problems and puzzles, and where to find them in nature, art, and music.
We will also give you some tips and tricks to help 5 th graders master them quickly and some activities and games to practice with their friends. And as a bonus, we will share with you some exciting number patterns and sequences resources that will boost your students’ learning and make them love math even more!
So let's get started!
What are Number Patterns?
A number pattern is a set of numbers that follows a specific rule or order. For example,
look at this number pattern: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ...
Can you guess what the rule is? That's right; it's adding 2 to the previous number. So the following number in the pattern would be 12, then 14, then 16, and so on.
Number patterns can also be more complex, such as: 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16 ...
Do you see the rule here? It's not as obvious as the previous one, but if you look closely, you will notice that the rule here is skip counting by 2 plus 1 . So the following number would be 19 (16, 18 + 1) , then 19 (19, 21 + 1) , then 22 (22, 24 + 1) , and so on.
Number patterns can help you discover exciting properties of numbers, such as divisibility rules , prime numbers , factors , multiples, and more. They can also help you make predictions and generalizations based on patterns.

How to teach number patterns in grade 5.
Teaching number patterns in grade 5 can be fun and engaging using diverse methods and resources. Here are some suggestions:
- Use visual aids such as charts, tables, graphs, diagrams, or manipulatives to show how number patterns work and how they relate to other math concepts.
- Use concrete examples from real life or other subjects such as science or social studies to show how number patterns are helpful and relevant.
- Use games and puzzles such as Sudoku, magic squares, crosswords, or logic problems to challenge students to find and complete number patterns.
- Use songs or poems with number patterns like "One Potato Two Potato" or "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" to help students remember and enjoy number patterns.
- Use calculators, computers, or apps to generate or explore number patterns.
- Use inquiry-based learning where students ask questions, make hypotheses, test their ideas, and share their findings about number patterns.
- Use cooperative learning, where students work in pairs or groups to investigate or create number patterns.
What are number sequences?
A number sequence is a list of numbers that follows a specific rule or order. For example, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 is a simple number sequence that follows the rule of adding 1 to the previous number.
Number sequences are similar to number patterns, but they have some differences. Number sequences usually have a starting and ending point, while number patterns can continue forever. Number sequences also have specific terms or positions, while number patterns can have any number of terms. For example,
1st term: 1
2nd term: 2
3rd term: 3
4th term: 4
5th term: 5
This is a way of describing the terms or positions of the number sequence above.
Number sequences can help you learn about arithmetic sequences (where each term is obtained by adding or subtracting a constant value), geometric sequences (where each term is obtained by multiplying or dividing by a constant value), Fibonacci sequence (where each term is the sum of the two previous terms), triangular numbers (where each term is the sum of all the natural numbers up to that term), square numbers (where each term is the square of a natural number), cube numbers (where each term is the cube of a natural number), and more.
Why number patterns and sequences are fun and easy to learn
Number patterns and sequences are fun and easy to learn because they appeal to our natural curiosity and sense of beauty. They also help us develop our logical thinking and problem-solving skills. Here are some reasons why number patterns and sequences are fun and easy to learn :
- They are everywhere . You can find number patterns and sequences in nature, such as the petals of a flower, the spirals of a shell, the spots of a leopard, or the rings of a tree. You can also find them in art, such as the symmetry of a painting, the rhythm of a song, the rhyme of a poem, or the shape of a sculpture. You can also find them in everyday life, such as the calendar, the clock, the phone number, or the license plate.
Or did you know that if you add up all the digits of any multiple of 9, you will always get 9? This is called the digital root of 9, a property of divisibility by 9.
Or you can make a sequence using your name, birthday, or hobbies. You can also use different operations or rules to make your patterns and sequences more exciting or challenging.
How to use number patterns and sequences to solve problems and puzzles
Number patterns and sequences can help you solve problems and puzzles by giving you clues, strategies, or shortcuts. Here are some ways to use number patterns and sequences to solve problems and puzzles :
- Look for patterns or sequences in the given information or answer choices . For example, if you are asked to find the next term in a sequence, you can look for a pattern or a rule that connects the given terms. Or, if you are asked to choose the correct answer from a list of options, you can look for a pattern or a sequence that matches the question.
Or, if you are asked to find how many times a specific digit appears in a large number, you can use the pattern or sequence of digits to find the answer.
- Use patterns or sequences to check your answers or find mistakes . For example, if you are asked to add or multiply two large numbers, you can use the pattern or sequence of digits to check if your answer is correct. Or, if you are asked to find a missing term in a sequence, you can use the pattern or rule to check if your answer fits.
Examples of number patterns and sequences in nature, art, and music
Number patterns and sequences are useful for math and enable us to appreciate the beauty and harmony of nature, art, and music. Here are some examples of number patterns and sequences in nature, art, and music :
The Fibonacci sequence is related to another number pattern called the golden ratio, a unique proportion that makes things look pleasing to the eye. The golden ratio is about 1.618, and you can find it in many natural shapes, such as the human face, a butterfly's wings, and the wave's curve.
Another artist who used number patterns and sequences was Piet Mondrian. He was inspired by geometry and used rectangles of different sizes and colors to create abstract paintings. He followed a rule that each rectangle had to be horizontal or vertical and that each color had to be red, yellow, blue, black, or white. He also used the golden ratio to arrange his rectangles nicely.
A typical rhythm pattern is called 4/4 time, which means that each measure has four beats, and each beat has a quarter-note value. You can count this pattern as 1-2-3-4 or clap along with it.
Another typical rhythm pattern is called 3/4 time, which means that each measure has three beats, and each beat has a quarter-note value. You can count this pattern as 1-2-3 or clap along with it. Some songs use different rhythm patterns to create variety and contrast.
As you can see, number patterns and sequences are fun, easy to learn, and excellent ways to understand and appreciate the world around us. Above all, they help us see the beauty and order in nature, art, and music.
Mathskills4kids’ Tips and tricks to master Grade 5 fun and engaging number patterns and sequences worksheets
Grade 5 students might think that number patterns and sequences are hard to learn, but they are easy and fun once you know the tricks! Here are some tips and tricks from Mathskills4kids.com that are helpful to master Grade 5 math fun and engaging number patterns and sequences worksheets :
Sometimes the rule is simple, like adding or multiplying by a constant. Other times, the rule is more complex, like using two operations or alternating between two rules. The key is to look for the pattern and figure out the rule.
They can make a table with two columns: one for the term number (n) and one for the term value (a). Then they can fill the table with the given terms and look for a pattern in the second column. They can also use a chart to plot the terms of a number pattern or sequence on a coordinate plane and see how they change as n increases.
They can also use variables and expressions to write a general formula for a number pattern or sequence, such as a(n) = 2n + 1 for the pattern 3, 5, 7, 9, ...
They can also use logic and common sense to see if their answers make sense. For example, if you find that the next term of a pattern is negative, but all the given terms are positive, you might have made a mistake.
Activities and games for 5 th graders to practice number patterns and sequences with their friends
Learning number patterns and sequences is easy, fun, and very useful. We can use them to solve problems and puzzles, create art and music, and explore nature and science. Here are some activities and games that your students can do with their friends to practice number patterns and sequences :
They can also make variations of this game by using different starting numbers or rules for generating the sequence.
Students can make a bingo game using this triangle by making cards with different numbers from Pascal's triangle. Then they can draw numbers from a hat or a bag and call them out loud. The first person who has five numbers in a row on their card wins.
Please encourage your students to challenge their friends to make their magic squares using different numbers or different sizes of grids. They can also try to find magic squares with other properties, such as being symmetric or having only prime numbers.
