Abstract	This study aimed to determine the effect of the multisensory approach on the problem-solving proficiency in Business Mathematics of Grade 11 General Academic Strand (GAS) students at Colacling National High School, Colacling, Lupi, Camarines Sur, Lupi District, Division of Camarines Sur during the School Year 2024–2025. Also, this specifically determined the status of students’ problem-solving proficiency in Business Mathematics in terms of solving problems involving fractions, decimals, and percentages; direct, inverse, and partitive proportions; and buying and selling products; developed multisensory instructional materials in Business Mathematics; determined the level of students’ problem-solving proficiency in Business Mathematics after using the multisensory instructional materials; assessed the significant difference between the students' problem-solving proficiency in Business Mathematics before and after the implementation of multisensory instructional materials; and assessed the effectiveness of multisensory instructional material in enhancing students’ problem-solving proficiency in Business Mathematics. A total of 69 Grade 11 GAS students served as respondents of the study. A descriptive-comparative research design was utilized. Major conclusions were: students have a below-average problem-solving proficiency in Business Mathematics; the development of multisensory instructional materials in Business Mathematics successfully addressed the identified learning difficulties of students; the use of multisensory instructional materials enhanced the problem-solving proficiency of students in Business Mathematics from beginning to approaching proficiency; there was a significant improvement in the problem-solving proficiency of students in Business Mathematics after using the multisensory instructional materials; the multisensory instructional materials had a large and positive effect on enhancing the problem-solving proficiency of students across all learning areas.
