Every sheet of multiplying integers worksheets on this page is built the moment you open it, so the 20 problems below are not the same ones the last visitor printed, and the answer key is generated with them. A typical problem from the sheet in front of you is (-15) ÷ (5), which works out to -3; another is (8) × (-10), giving -80.
‘New set of problems’ opens the generator in its own tab. There you can change the problem count and turn the answer key on or off. ‘Print or save as PDF’ opens the print dialog — choose Save as PDF in the printer list to keep the file. The sheet fits US Letter and A4, and the answer key prints on its own page.
This sheet uses factors from −12 to 12, which keeps the arithmetic small so the sign rules get the attention.
For multiplication and division the rule is mechanical: same signs give a positive, different signs give a negative. State it separately from the addition rules, or the two get blended and -80 comes out with the wrong sign.
Because the numbers regenerate, the sign combination changes every problem rather than settling into a run.
Negative numbers break the rule that arithmetic makes things bigger, and that is the whole difficulty. Working (-15) ÷ (5) to -3 means thinking about direction as well as size.
In US classrooms these multiplying integers worksheets are commonly aligned with the number system strand for grade 6, though the exact wording varies from state to state.
| # | Problem | Answer | What to check |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | (-15) ÷ (5) = | -3 | Watch for: applying the multiplication sign rules to addition |
| 2 | (8) × (-10) = | -80 | Check: dropping the sign in the answer |
| 3 | (24) ÷ (3) = | 8 | Look at: treating a negative sign as belonging to the operation |
| 4 | (45) ÷ (9) = | 5 | Ask about: misreading a double negative |
| 5 | (3) × (8) = | 24 | Watch for: subtracting the smaller from the larger regardless of position |
| 6 | (-80) ÷ (-8) = | 10 | Check: guessing on zero pairs |
A good first problem to do together is (-15) ÷ (5), which comes out at -3. Do (-15) ÷ (5) once with the child narrating, then hand over the pencil and start the clock on the other 20 problems.
Try (24) ÷ (3) together before letting the child start alone. The answer to (24) ÷ (3) is 8, and talking through how it was reached takes about a minute and saves several minutes of guessing later in the sheet.
The key prints on its own page by default. Uncheck the answer-key box before printing if you would rather keep it back and mark the sheet yourself.
Because the numbers are random, there is no shared answer list to look up: the key printed behind your sheet is the only one that fits it, and it shows -3 for (-15) ÷ (5).
To save these multiplying integers worksheets instead of printing them, choose 'Save as PDF' in the printer list. You get the worksheet and the answer key as a single PDF, on Letter or A4 depending on your printer settings.
Printing works the same on US Letter and A4, because the layout uses relative widths rather than fixed inches. Set margins to default and scaling to 100%, and all 20 problems fit.
Print a sheet of multiplying integers worksheets, run it for 10 minutes, mark it together, and come back tomorrow for a different set of numbers on the same skill.
