Identifying Like and Unlike Fractions | Worksheet #1

Initially a tad bit unnerving, fractions will be a doddle when properly practiced. Remind children that fractions with the same denominators are called like fractions, and those having different denominators are called unlike fractions.

Identifying Like and Unlike Fractions 1

Identifying Like and Unlike Fractions | Worksheet #2

In the first section of the pdf, observe the denominators in each exercise and write ‘like fraction’ or ‘unlike fraction’. In the second section, circle the pair of like and unlike fractions as directed.

Comparing Fractions with Like Denominators

Let 3rd grade and 4th grade students apply their mathematical prowess to compare fractions. Check how deftly they use the <, >, or = symbol while comparing fractions with the same denominators here.

Comparing Fractions with Like Denominators

Comparing Fractions with Different Denominators

Watch learners cast their nets wider and enhance their comparing haul. The task in this printable resource on comparing fractions with unlike denominators is accomplished by using the LCM of the denominators.

Comparing Fractions with Different Denominators

Ordering Fractions with Like Denominators

Give a big shout-out to the fun task of sorting fractions with these printable assessment sheets. Ordering fractions with like denominators, i.e., arranging from least to greatest or from greatest to least, will now be a cinch!

Ordering Fractions with Like Denominators

Ordering Fractions with Different Denominators

Help children take the edge of arranging fractions with unlike denominations in increasing or decreasing order. Once they have become test-ready, learners will display their exploits ordering fractions having different denominators.

Subtracting Like Fractions

Guide children in grade 4 and grade 5 to wrap their minds around the basics of subtracting like fractions. Let them put on their subtracting caps, subtract the numerators, and simplify the resultant fractions.

Subtracting Like Fractions

Subtracting Unlike Fractions

Add bells and whistles to fraction learning with a bunch of selective exercises on subtracting unlike fractions. Train young learners to become self-reliant as they get the same denominators and continue the subtraction operation.
