Two visual problems give mathematicians a chance to compare fractions with like denominators. They examine two pairs of shapes with portions filled in, adding the greater than, less than, or equal to symbol between each. The shape pairs...

Compare fractions  with these visual examples, all of which have like denominators. There are five pairs of shapes here with various portions shaded. Each pair is segmented into the same number of sections, so comparing is much...

Who has more candy? Learners start by examining a word problem and its visual illustration to determine how Joel's candy numbers compare to Toby's. They fill in the appropriate symbol. Next, mathematicians compare fractions and two...

In this comparing numbers worksheet, students compare fractions with uncommon denominators, mixed numbers and whole numbers, and mixed numbers and fractions with uncommon denominators. Students solve 10 problems.

Elementary mathematicians begin by reading a one-page text that explains how to compare fractions. They solve two problems in which they must circle equal fractions in a set. They then solve four problems where a set of five fractions is...

in this comparing fractions worksheet, students compare a set of 14 pairs of fractions, circling either the greater than, equal to or less than symbol. 

A short, multiple choice assessment that determines your 3rd graders' ability to correctly compare fractions with like denominators. This quiz asks learners to compare two fractions using words, the greater than/less than symbols, and...

Learners compare three sets of fractions using the greater than, less than, and equal signs. To justify their answers, a drawing is also required that illustrates their reasoning. Including fractions with like and unlike denominators, as...

In this subtracting and comparing fractions word problem activity, students use two recipes to solve and explain the differences. Students solve six word problems.

Develop young mathematicians' ability to compare fractions with investigation into the number 1/2. After brainstorming a list of fractions equivalent to 1/2, children identify a pattern in the numerators and...

Fractions are a common fear in school, but visualizing them on a number line can help your learners understand their relationship to one another. The activity provides two solutions; use either a number line or a common denominator....

Each of these five models represents one of the fractions listed; challenge your scholars to match them up. The models consist of shapes divided into squares with the total number of squares as the denominator and a colored portion as...

In this fractions instructional activity, students solve 6 story problems. Students will need to change fractions have common denominators before comparing them.

In this comparing fractions worksheet, students compare fractions that contain 1 digit numbers and identify which is bigger. Students complete 10 problems.

In this comparing fractions instructional activity, students compare fractions that contain 1 digit numbers and identify which is bigger. Students complete 10 problems.

Compare fractions with different denominators in a handy Common Core based worksheet. Fourth graders decide which fraction is larger or smaller based on the parts that make up a whole (denominator) and the parts being described...

Here is a comparing and ordering fractions learning activity that extends young mathematicians understanding of fractions with like and non-like denominators. By representing and explaining each fraction in a picture or diagram, learners...

Compare two fractions with like denominators or like numerators in an excellent skills practice worksheet. With 10 sets of worksheets, the packet uses numbers and visual models to help young mathematicians determine greater...

For this compare and ordering fractions worksheet, students compare fractions and order them from least to greatest. Students compare 6 fractions and order 20 sets of fractions, and answer 4 word problems.

In this worksheet on comparing fractions and decimals, fifth and sixth graders compare 40 sets of fractions and decimals using the greater than or less than symbols.

What better way to learn about fractions than with a couple pizzas? Help Jessica figure out how much of the pizza she has eaten, while teaching your class that fractions refer to a specific whole amount. This problem will be challenging...

It's a snow day, and two brothers attending schools with different schedules each got a late start to the day. But who had the shorter school day? That's what your class will find out as they apply their knowledge of fractions to this...

Visual models are a great tool for demonstrating the concept of equivalent fractions. Given two pictures, young mathematicians first identify each fraction and then write an explanation for why they are equivalent. Use as a guided...

A seemingly simple question that reveals a lot about a student's understanding of fractions. In finding an answer, learners compare fractions with different denominators that are both greater and less than one. No number line is...
