Engage students in winter math activities with this set of holiday-themed task cards for solving multiplicative comparison word problems. 24 task cards to practice solving math story problems available in digital and print options. 

Students will solve one-step multiplication & division story problems involving multiplicative comparison and determine if they need to multiply or divide to find their answer. (4 CHALLENGE problems with multi-steps). I purposely mixed up the multiplication and division math word problems on these task cards as the objective for students is to identify the correct operation. 

Task cards include the following question types:

① The unknown is the greater quantity.

• Grace has 20 pens. Ana has 4 times as many as Grace does. How many pens does Ana have? 20 x 4 = a

② The unknown is the lesser quantity. 

• Grace has 20 pens. That is 4 times as many as Ana. How many pens does Ana have? 4 x a = 20

③ The unknown is the multiplier or comparison statement.

• Grace has 20 pens. Ana has 5 pens. How many times more pens does Grace have than Ana? 5 x a = 20
