About this resource

Description

This multiplying by 0 and 1 worksheet gives 3rd grade students daily test practice with two of the most important rules in multiplication. Any number times 0 is 0, because zero groups of something is nothing at all. Any number times 1 is that same number, because one group keeps every item. Once students truly understand these rules, a whole row of the multiplication table becomes easy.

In Part A, students solve eight column problems. Each one has a factor of 0 or 1, and some of the other factors have two digits, so students must use the rule instead of a memorized fact. In Part B, students solve three word problems about pumpkins, goldfish, and markers. Each story needs a step with 0 or 1 plus a second step of adding. A complete answer key is on page 2 for quick checking.

What’s Included

  • One printable worksheet with eight column multiplication problems
  • Three two-step word problems that use the zero and identity properties
  • Answer lines with units for every word problem
  • A full answer key on page 2

3 Reasons This Worksheet Helps Kids

  • Builds number sense: students learn why multiplying by 0 and 1 works, not just what the answer is.
  • Grows fact fluency: these rules unlock two full rows of the multiplication table in a few minutes of practice.
  • Connects to real life: the word problems show the rules at work with wagons, fish tanks, and boxes of markers.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Before the worksheet, act out the rules with cups and counters: show four empty cups for 4 x 0 and four cups with one counter each for 4 x 1. Use Part A as a quick daily warm-up, a timed test practice, or a homework check. Ask students to explain the zero rule and the one rule in their own words, then have them write a new word problem for a partner. This 3rd grade multiplication worksheet also works well as a review before moving on to harder facts, and the multiplying by 0 and 1 worksheet answer key makes checking fast.
