Multiplying by 10, 100 and 1000
When we multiply by 10 the number becomes 10 times bigger. The
digits move one place to the left.
When we multiply by 100 the digits move 2 places to the left and
so on.
TOP TIPS
The easy way to multiply whole numbers by 10, 100, 1000 is to add
zeroes.
(X 10 add 1 zero) e g. 33 X 10 = 330
(X 100 add 2 zeroes) e.g. 41 X 100 = 4100
(X 1000 add 3 zeroes) e.g. 71 X 1000 = 71,000
For decimal numbers (which are not whole) hop the decimal point
to the right always remembering we are making the number
bigger.
1 place to the right for X 10 e.g 38.9 X 10 = 389
2 place to the right for X 100 e.g. 8.12 X 100 = 812
3 place to the right for X 1000 e.g. 9.13 X 1000 = 9130
To multiply by
10 move each
digit one
decimal place
to left and add
zero as a place
saver when
needed. To
multiply by 100
move each digit
two decimal
places left.

Dividing by 10, 100 and 1000
When we divide by 10 the number becomes 10 times smaller. The
digits move one place to the right.
When we divide by 100 the number becomes 100 times smaller.
The digits move two places to the right,
TOP TIPS
The easiest way to divide whole numbers which end in zeroes is to
take off the same number of zeroes as you are dividing by
e.g.
3700 100 = 37 (take off 2 zeroes)
770 10 = 77 (take off 1 zero)
For numbers which do not end in zeroes the easiest way to hop the
decimal point to the left always remembering we are making the
number smaller.
1 place to the left for 10 e.g. 379 10 = 37.9
2 places to the left for 100 e.g. 889 100 = 8.89

Factors
The factors of a number are the numbers which divide exactly
into it (Fit into it) without a remainder.
To find factors dont just guess by randomly thinking of numbers,
work through the numbers in order.
Example:
The factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16
The pairs of factors of 12 are 1 x 12, 2 x 6, 3 x 4
Multiples
A number adding onto itself again and again
e.g. multiples of 2 would be 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 etc.
multiples of 5 would be 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 etc
TOP TIP
Multiples are More , Factors Fit
Square Numbers and Square Roots
A number multiplied by itself is a square number. They are square
numbers because they can be drawn in the shape of a square. The
opposite of a square number is called a square root.
Squares Square Roots
1! = 1 "1 = 1
2! = 4 "4 = 2
4! = 16 "16 = 4
5! = 25 "25 = 5
6! = 36 "36 = 6
7! = 49 "49 = 7
8! = 64 "64 = 8
9! = 81 "81 = 9
10! = 100 "100 = 10
Cube Numbers and Cube Roots
A number multiplied by itself and then by itself again e.g. 2 X 2 X
2 is a cube number. The opposite of a cube number is called a
cube root.
At Year 5 we only need to learn the first 3 cube numbers
Cube Cube Roots
1# = 1 #"1 = 1
2# = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 #"8 = 2
3# = 3 x 3 x 3 = 27 #"27 = 3
Prime Numbers
A number which has only one pair of factors itself and 1 is a prime
number. Nothing divides into a prime number apart from 1 and
itself. The first prime number is 2. It is the only even prime
number
These are the first 10 prime numbers.
2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29
Prime Factors
We find the prime factors of a number using a factor tree.
For example find the prime factors of 12.
Start with the number in the middle of the page.
Write down a pair of factors as the first branches
12
6 2
If the number is prime leave it alone and put a circle round it (like
a stop sign). If not write it as a pair of factors using more
branches.
12
6 2
3 2
Continue until all the numbers at the end of the branches are
prime numbers.
The prime factors of 12 are all the numbers with circles around
them
So 12 = 2 x 2 x 3
Rounding
When we round to the nearest 10 we need to look at the
units column to see if we need to round up or down
Example:
Number of people at Hall Grove School is 374, to the
nearest 10 is 370.
When we round to the nearest 100 we need to look at the
tens column to see if we need to round up or down
Example: Number of people at Hall Grove School is 374, to
the nearest 100 is 400
When we round to the nearest 1000 we need to look at the
hundreds column to see if we need to round up or down
Example: Number of people in Windlesham is 8374, to the
nearest 1000 is 8000
Remember : If the number we are looking at is 5 or above we
round up.
Example: 285 to the nearest 10 is 290
Decimal numbers can be rounded to the nearest whole number,
Example:
5.78 to the nearest whole number is 6
32.89 to the nearest whole number is 33
12.06 to the nearest whole number is 12
This is especially useful when we use money or measures such
as length or mass
2.76 to the nearest pound is 3
4 m 35 cm can be rounded to 4 m, to the nearest metre
Negative Numbers
Numbers don't just stop at zero. When you count backwards from
zero, you go into negative numbers.
Positive numbers are more than zero.
Negative numbers are less than zero.
Use a number line to order negative numbers. For instance, it is
easy to see that -2 is a higher number than -5 because it is
further to the right on the number line.
Solving Word Problems
In mathematics there are many ways of saying the same thing.
Symbol Words Used
+
Addition, Add, Sum, Plus, Increase, Total
-
Subtraction, Subtract, Minus, Less, Difference,
Decrease, Take Away, Deduct
$
Multiplication, Multiply, Product, By, Times, Lots Of
Division, Divide, Goes Into, How Many Times
When solving word problems.
- First Read the question carefully
- Underline the key words look for the clue words (e.g. total)
- Write down the Calculation
- Solve the answer
- Check - does it make sense?
Fractions
A fraction is a part of a whole. There are two numbers to every
fraction:
The top number of the fraction is called the numerator. The
bottom number is called the denominator.
Fractions of Amounts
To find a fraction of a quantity:
Divide the quantity by the denominator
Multiply the answer you get by the numerator
To find
5
2
of 15, for example:
Divide 15 by 5 (the denominator): 15 5 = 3
Multiply the answer 3 by 2 (the numerator): 3 x 2 = 6
So
2
/
5
of 15 is 6
To find
6
1
of 66, for example:
Divide 66 by 6
66 6 = 11
So
6
1
of 66 = 11
Properties of Triangles
Isosceles triangles have 2 equal sides and 2 equal angles.
Scalene Triangles have no equal sides and no equal angles.
Equilateral Triangles have 3 equal sides and 3 equal angles.
A Right Angled Triangle has an angle of 90 (a right angle)
