Activities include naming fractions from words and pictures, writing fractions from visual models, identifying correct fraction representations, partitioning shapes into equal parts, determining whether fractions equal zero, one-half, or one whole, examining fraction values between whole numbers, comparing relative fraction sizes, finding reciprocals, and expressing fractions in words and numbers. Resources span first through fifth grade.
About these worksheets
These worksheets provide comprehensive practice with fraction addition and subtraction. Topics include adding and subtracting with same and different denominators, working with mixed numbers and improper fractions, using visual models, regrouping when subtracting mixed numbers, adding tenths and hundredths, and solving fraction word problems. Resources span fourth through fifth grade and beyond.
Adding Mixed Fractions (Visual)
- Add mixed numbers by combining the whole-number parts and the fraction parts.
- Use pictures or fraction models to see what the fractions add up to.
Mixed Fractions (Same Denominator)
- Add mixed numbers when the fractions have the same denominator.
- Subtract mixed numbers when the fractions have the same denominator.
- Regroup when subtracting by borrowing 1 whole and turning it into fractional parts.
Improper Fractions (Same Denominator)
- Add improper fractions when the bottom number is the same.
- Subtract improper fractions when the bottom number is the same.
- Rename an improper fraction as a mixed number after you add or subtract.
- Simplify the final answer when the fraction can be reduced.
Word Problems Same Denominator
- Add fractions that already have the same denominator.
- Subtract fractions that already have the same denominator.
- Read a word problem and decide whether to add or subtract the fractions.
Adding Parts of a Whole
- Add two or more fractions that have the same denominator.
- Use fraction pictures to see how parts combine to make a total.
- Match a visual model to the correct fraction value.
Adding Fractions Visual (combining)
- Add two fractions by combining their parts to make a total amount.
- Use pictures or fraction models to see what each fraction means before adding.
Adding Fractions Numeric & Visual
- Add two fractions to find the total amount.
- Add fractions with the same denominator.
- Match a fraction sum to the correct picture model.
Adding and Subtracting Fractions Visually (Different Denominators)
- Add fractions that have different denominators by rewriting them as equivalent fractions with a common denominator.
- Subtract fractions that have different denominators by using a common denominator first.
- Use visual fraction models to see how two unlike fractions combine or how much is left after subtracting.
Different Denominator
- Add fractions that have different denominators.
- Subtract fractions that have different denominators.
- Find a common denominator so the fractions can be combined.
- Rewrite fractions as equivalent fractions and simplify the final answer when possible.
Word Problems Different Denom
- Subtract fractions that have different denominators by finding a common denominator first.
- Read word problems and decide whether to add or subtract fractions to answer the question.
- Simplify answers when possible and write them as a fraction or mixed number.
Combining Amounts
- Add more than 2 fractions to find a total amount.
- Add fractions with the same denominator by combining the numerators.
- Add fractions with different denominators by rewriting them with a common denominator first.
About these worksheets
Students build fluency with fraction multiplication and division through a wide range of activities. Worksheets cover multiplying fractions by whole numbers and by other fractions, using visual models and number lines, estimating fraction products, cross-cancelling, dividing unit fractions, interpreting fractions as division, distributing fractional amounts, and solving word problems. Topics span fourth through sixth grade Common Core standards.
Distributing Fractions Sums
- Use fraction addition to recombine the parts and confirm the total stays the same.
- Rewrite fractions into equivalent fractions so they can be added with a common denominator.
- Simplify the final fraction or mixed number when possible.
