This Grade 3 multiplication word problems worksheet is open-ended and focuses on matching stories to equations. Four multiple-choice items ask which story fits 5 times 8 equals 40 or which equation fits 6 rows of 4 carrots. Five fill questions practice the same reasoning with chocolates, oranges, and garden rows. Hints and why notes use Grade 3 vocabulary such as factor, product, and equal groups so students build strong equation-story connections today always.
