Table of contents
In addition to reviewing and strengthening the skills learned in previous years, year 4 maths students learn multiplication and division, explore fractions, calculate measurements, and more. Also, word problems at this level are often multi-step, requiring students to understand what operations to perform and how to perform them correctly.
This list of year 4 maths questions is intended to reinforce concepts students have already been taught. The list is divided into sections: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, measurement, and multi-step problems. These sections allow students to specifically focus their practice, but feel free to skip around and choose the maths practice problems that best suit your child’s needs.
