Put your fraction knowledge to the test with this instructional activity using the different operations to simplify. These challenging problems practice order of operations, mixed numbers, and finding common denominators. A great mix of...

In fifth grade, young mathematicians extend their understanding of fractions to multiplying them together. Give them a activity that has them do exactly that. Class members solve five fraction multiplication problems, including one with...

Do the keep, change, flip dance. The resource shows that the division of algebraic fractions follows the same rules as dividing numerical fractions. Pupils understand that if they can multiply rational expressions, they can divide...

Which one is greater? Once young mathematicians understand the basics of fractions they can begin comparing them. In these practice problems they begin by examining 12 pairs of fractions and choosing the one that is greater. Next,...

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...

Get your fraction on with this learning exercise full of adding and subtracting with fractions and mixed numbers. The first page starts off simple, and the second page introduces more challenging problems. Let your learners become...

Students demonstrate how to solve addition and subtraction of fractions. In this fractions lesson, students use folded paper to shade in fractional parts and identify the sum of the parts shaded.

As this slide show explains, simplifying a fraction is very similar to finding an equivalent fraction. The process to simplify fractions is fully demonstrated and clearly explained, 15 practice problems are included.

Help mathematicians convert fractions to decimals and vice versa through these exercise sets. First, they write out nine fractions as decimals. This is really a practice in place value, as all the denominators here are 10. One of them...

Fun with fractions! Fourth graders practice substituting and reducing fractions. The problems contain blank spaces and become more challenging as the activity progresses. Use this as a building block in your fractions lesson.

After you've introduced fractions to your class, have them check out this highly comprehensive slide-show on equivalent fractions. The fractions 1/1, 2/2, 4/4, and 8/8 are shows as fraction bars so that learners will be able to grasp how...

It's all here: uncommon denominators, reducing, improper fractions...mathematicians have their hands full as they complete 16 fraction addition problems. There are two examples showing them the steps required, and each problem guides...

Build your young mathematicians' skills with this activity full of challenging fraction problems. Start small with the basic operations and work their way up to multi-step expressions. A great way to review fractions and test their...

Make the complicated look relatively simple. The video shows how multiplication of algebraic fractions is easier when they factor the numerators and denominators. Pupils see which factors will cancel, or divide out, easier when writing...

The steps are laid out in these fraction addition practice problems. Scholars add fractions with common denominators, making sure to reduce to the simplest form. For all of these, that means turning a simplified improper fraction into a...

Each of these 20 fraction pairs needs to be totaled, but that's not all there is to do! Scholars find the least common denominator first, then reduce the answer to simplest form if needed. These practice problems are excellent in the...

Give mathematicians 39 chances to practice adding fractions, most of which involve mixed numbers. There are three examples to get them started, and scholars should be encouraged to reduce answers when necessary. Not for beginners, these...

Simplification is about factoring. While working with rational expressions, pupils must know how to factor. The video shows how the process of finding common factors in algebraic fractions is similar to finding common factors in...

Seven questions make up an interactive designed to boost mathematician's skills in dividing whole numbers by mixed fractions. Practice comes with a visual aid with movable parts. Questions types include fill in the blank,...

Practice, practice, practice! Use this resource to help kids practice ordering and comparing fractions. There are six problems where they compare two fractions, two where they order fractions smallest to largest, and one where they fill...

We are not exactly sure what a Squeeble is, but apparently they love cake and fractions, and your little bakers-turned-mathematicians will also. This app focuses on the basics of fractions including modeling fractions, equivalent...

Have your class practice converting fractions to decimals, adding decimals, comparing fractions, and more. Following a game format, learners solidify important skills while solving problems involving fractions and decimals.

Put fractions in simpler terms. Learners watch a video showing how to simplifying fractions. They then work through two worksheets to practice the skill.

What do you get when you combine chocolate bars and math? The answer: A great lesson on improper fractions and mixed numbers! Learners discuss the differences between whole numbers and fractions, then use images of scored chocolate bars...
