Art-Themed Word Problems

This worksheet blends multiplication with real-world art studio scenarios. Students use area models to determine total output based on rates and time, then compare results to answer “who did more?” questions. Each problem requires decomposing numbers into tens and ones, computing partial products, and summing totals before comparing the two quantities. This design encourages conceptual understanding of multiplication while strengthening reading comprehension and mathematical reasoning. It is excellent practice for applying area models to meaningful contexts.
