Our math topics for 5th grade learners are designed to follow closely the Common Core standards for math for 5th grade pupils.
In the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for grade 5, the topic of multiplication is a significant component of the mathematics curriculum. Students build on their foundational knowledge and skills from earlier grades and develop a deeper understanding of multiplication. Here are the key aspects of multiplication covered in the grade 5 CCSS:
Multiplication Facts: Students continue to build fluency in multiplication facts up to 12 × 12. They practice and memorize multiplication facts to develop automaticity and efficiency in mental calculations.
Mental Math Strategies: Students learn and apply mental math strategies to multiply numbers efficiently. These strategies may include using known facts, place value understanding, and properties of operations, such as the distributive property.
Multi-Digit Multiplication: Students extend their understanding of multiplication to include multi-digit numbers. They learn and apply the standard algorithm to multiply two and three-digit numbers. Emphasis is placed on place value understanding, regrouping, and the alignment of digits.
Multiplication with Decimals: Grade 5 introduces the multiplication of decimals. Students learn to multiply decimals by whole numbers and decimals by decimals. They understand the role of place value and the effect of multiplying by powers of 10.
Multiplication with Fractions: Students extend their understanding of multiplication to include fractions. They learn to multiply fractions by whole numbers and fractions by fractions. Visual models, such as area models or number lines, are used to support the understanding of fraction multiplication.
Problem Solving: Multiplication is applied to solve various real-life and mathematical problems. Students analyze word problems, identify the relevant information, and determine the appropriate multiplication strategy to find solutions. They also practice explaining their reasoning and justifying their answers.
Estimation: Students develop their estimation skills and use them to check the reasonableness of their multiplication calculations. They learn to round numbers and perform mental calculations to estimate products before finding the exact answers.
Division and Inverse Relationships: Students explore the inverse relationship between multiplication and division. They understand that division is the inverse operation of multiplication and can use multiplication to solve division problems and vice versa.
Throughout grade 5, students are expected to develop a conceptual understanding of multiplication and apply it to solve a variety of mathematical problems. They are encouraged to use mental strategies, estimation, and written methods, explain their thinking, and communicate their solutions effectively.

A topic is selected at the beginning of a session at Free Math Games and will be remembered when you move between games or activities. The math for the topic is carefully constructed to match the elementary math level commonly taught in US schools. This means that you as an elementary pupil should see similar math problems to those you are seeing at school (if you are at school) for any particular subject. Please let us know if that is not the case.
See the help box below for instructions on choosing a topic here at Free Math Games.
UXO * Duck shoot * The frog flies * Pong * Cat and mouse * The beetle and the bee
Rock fall * Four in a row * Sow grow * Choose or lose * Mix and match
Click on the "1. Start" button in the top navigation bar - that brings you to this elementary level topic selection page. On the topic selection page you will see that the topics are divided up:
Since you are currently within the elementary section of Free Math Games you will see the elementary topics. The elementary grades will have loaded. Choose your grade. The broad categories available will load. Click on a category to see the available sub-categories and topics.
For example, if you choose fifth grade, then the category: "Fractions" you will be offered a choice of fraction sub-categories and topics suitable for Grade 5. Click on each sub-category to view the available topics.
When you click on the name of a topic, the topic will load into the lesson page (once a topic has loaded it will be available for all activities and will not have to be downloaded again) and the lesson start page will be displayed. You can choose to do the lesson or jump immediately to the games using that topic.
