What Class 4 Mathematics Chapter 13 Covers
Mystery Matrix, Constructing Tables & Splitting Groups solves factor-product matrix puzzles and constructs larger tables (like 15× or 26×) by splitting numbers into tens and ones (box/area multiplication method).
Multiplying and Dividing by 10 & 100 and Chinnu’s Coins calculates coach capacities, ticket costs, and tempo-traveller seating using multiples of 10 and 100, divides numbers by 10 and 100 to find quotients and remainders, and solves coin-value puzzles.

FAQ
How can you multiply 26 × 14 by splitting into tens and ones?
Split 26 into 20 + 6 and 14 into 10 + 4; multiply the four parts (20×10 = 200, 20×4 = 80, 6×10 = 60, 6×4 = 24) and add them up: 200 + 80 + 60 + 24 = 364.
What happens when you divide a number by 10 or 100?
When dividing by 10, the Ones digit forms the remainder and the remaining digits form the quotient (e.g., 247 ÷ 10 gives Q = 24, R = 7); when dividing by 100, the last two digits form the remainder.
