Grid method multiplication

The area model: break each number into place values, fill the boxes and add them up.

About this worksheet

Each problem has a grid. The numbers are broken into hundreds, tens and ones along the edges; students multiply each pair to fill a box, then add the boxes for the answer.

Turn off "Break the numbers apart for the student" to make students do the splitting too. The answer key fills every box.
