5th Grade Math Worksheets
Fifth grade is fluency with the standard algorithm, all four operations with decimals to hundredths, and fractions with unlike denominators - adding, subtracting, and multiplying them. Expressions with parentheses and conversions between units round out the year. Each page below prints a fresh sheet for one skill.
Multi-Digit Multiplication and the fraction pages are the heart of it; the decimal pages follow the same four operations one place value further.

Frequently asked questions
What math does 5th grade cover?
Multi-digit multiplication by the standard algorithm, division with two-digit divisors, adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators, multiplying fractions, decimal operations to hundredths, expressions with parentheses, and volume.
Is there a volume worksheet?
Yes, three. Volume with Unit Cubes draws each box built from cubes to count, which is where volume starts. Volume Worksheets labels the length, width and height in centimetres and asks for the volume, or gives the volume and asks for a missing edge. Every box is drawn the same way, with its front face at the ratio its labels state. Volume of Composite Figures joins two boxes in a step and asks for the volume of the whole solid.
What is the standard algorithm?
The column method most adults learned: write one number above the other, multiply by each digit of the bottom number in turn, and add the rows. Fifth grade expects students to use it fluently for multi-digit multiplication.
Is there long division with two-digit divisors?
Yes. Open Long Division and set First number to 2 digits. Two-digit divisors are the fifth-grade standard for division.
Where do fractions with unlike denominators start?
With Adding Fractions With Unlike Denominators, where every problem needs a common denominator. Simplifying Fractions is worth doing first, since most answers need simplifying.
