Math Word Problem Worksheets for 3rd Graders

Third graders will be challenged with single-step and two-step word problems. They will need to use basic multiplication for some problems along with thinking and addition or substraction skills. Taking real life situations kids will need to find solutions that make sense. The beauty of these questions is that multiple choices are not provided so kids will need to show not only the answer but how they thought through the word problem to arrive at a solution.

35 math problems for 3 rd graders

In 3rd grade, students are introduced to important math concepts that become the building blocks for future mathematical learning. Let’s practice those concepts with this list of math problems for 3rd graders.

Author Katie Wickliff

Published September 25, 2023

• Key takeaways
• In 3rd grade math, students develop a deeper understanding of multiplication and division, fractions, and measurements.
• Word problems for 3rd graders require more advanced comprehension skills.
• Place Value: Understanding place value helps us read and write numbers correctly and compare their values.
• Look for opportunities for your child to practice their math at home–worksheets, math games , or a math practice app will help strengthen new mathematical knowledge. While consistency is key, math practice for 3rd graders should be engaging and fun.

Table of contents

• Subtraction
• Multiplication
• Measurement
• Multi-step word problems

Answer sheet

In addition to reviewing and strengthening the skills learned in previous years, 3rd graders learn multiplication and division, explore fractions, calculate measurements, and more. Also, word problems for 3rd graders are often multi-step, requiring students to understand what operations to perform and how to perform them correctly. 

This list of 3rd grade math problems 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 3rd grade math practice problems that best suit your child’s needs.

2. Assessments: You can use these worksheets to assess students' understanding of the topics you've taught. The variety of exercises, including word problems and numeric problems, can help gauge students' grasp of the material.

3. Homework Assignments: These worksheets can be assigned as homework to give students additional practice outside of the classroom. They can help fill in the gap from regular workbooks.

4. Centers or Stations: In a classroom that uses a centers or stations approach, these worksheets could be used at a math center where students rotate through different activities.

5. Early Finisher Activity: For students who finish their work early, these worksheets can provide an additional challenge and keep them engaged.

6. Group Work: Some worksheets could be used for pair or small group work, promoting collaborative problem-solving skills.

Remember, it's important to go through the worksheets with the students after they've completed them, or provide them with the answer keys, to ensure they understand any mistakes they might have made.

What math skills should I teach my third grade class?

The content you teach your third graders will depend on your curriculum and your students’ individual needs. 

Generally, students in third grade will deepen their knowledge of operations, place value, measurement and geometry. They may also be introduced to new topics like fractions, multiplication and division.

If you’re teaching using the Common Core curriculum , you will want to provide coverage for the following standards:

Operations and Algebraic Thinking:

• Interpret products and quotients of whole numbers, understanding multiplication as groups and division as equal sharing.
• Use multiplication and division facts within 100 to solve word problems involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities.
• Determine unknown numbers in multiplication or division equations with three whole numbers.
• Apply properties of operations to multiply and divide.
• Understand division as an unknown-factor problem.
• Fluently multiply and divide within 100 using strategies and properties of operations, knowing all products of two one-digit numbers.
• Solve two-step word problems using the four operations, representing them with equations and assessing reasonableness using mental computation and estimation.
• Identify and explain arithmetic patterns using properties of operations.

Number and Operations in Base Ten:

• Use place value when rounding numbers to the nearest 10 or 100.
• Fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and the relationship between addition and subtraction.
• Multiply one-digit whole numbers by multiples of 10 in the range 10-90 using strategies based on place value and properties of operations.

Measurement & Data: 

• Tell and write time to the nearest minute and solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of time intervals in minutes, using number line diagrams.
• Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses using standard units (grams, kilograms, liters), and solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes in the same units.
• Draw scaled picture graphs and bar graphs to represent data sets with multiple categories, and solve "how many more" and "how many less" problems using scaled bar graphs.
• Generate measurement data by measuring lengths and create line plots with appropriate units (whole numbers, halves, or quarters).
• Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures and understand the concepts of area measurement.
• Measure areas by counting unit squares and understand the relationship between area, multiplication, and addition.
• Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving perimeters of polygons, including finding perimeter given side lengths, finding unknown side lengths, and comparing rectangles with the same perimeter but different areas or the same area but different perimeters.
• Understand that shapes in different categories can share attributes that define a larger category. Recognize rhombuses, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals, and identify quadrilaterals that do not belong to these subcategories.
• Partition shapes into equal areas and express the area of each part as a unit fraction of the whole.

Number and Operations – Fractions:

• Understand fractions as quantities formed by dividing a whole into equal parts.
• Represent fractions on a number line, including with even denominators from 2 to 8.
• Identify and explain equivalent fractions in specific cases.
• Compare fractions by reasoning about their size.

In some situations, like teaching gifted students, you may want to introduce your students to topics seen more commonly in fourth grade. This includes skills like understanding decimals, dividing with remainders and more. Understand more about differentiating your lesson to cater to gifted students here.

Additionally, for teachers wanting support struggling students, you may need to revisit skills learned in second grade. This can include mastering arithmetic skills like skip counting, double-digit addition and handling subtraction word problems and facts.

Will there be more worksheet topics for third grade?

Certainly, we're happy to share that we're expanding our library of 3rd grade math worksheets. This expansion will include new and interesting resources like subtraction worksheets, fractions worksheets, and exercises for basic division word problems.

50 Third Grade Math Word Problems of the Day

The area of Happytown is 42 square miles.

Opening your daily math lesson with a Math Word Problem of the Day is an excellent way to set the stage for learning. We all know that word problems are difficult for young learners to grasp, even when the mathematical operation portion of the problem is basic. Incorporate these third grade math word problems one day at a time at the start of your math block to build confidence, critical thinking skills, and a learning community. Students will get used to reading slowly for meaning, while also identifying key information. Encourage students to write out equations and draw pictures to explain their thinking, since this helps them see the light when they are stuck!

Topics covered include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, mixed operation, fractions, area and perimeter, and measurement. All you need to do is post one of these third grade math word problems on your whiteboard or projector screen, then let kids take it from there.
