About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 12 problems adding and subtracting mixed numbers with unlike denominators, written vertically.
This worksheet adds and subtracts mixed numbers with unlike denominators in the vertical form of the standard algorithm. Sums whose fraction parts pass a whole are regrouped and differences borrow, which is the part of the procedure worth the practice. Every answer is in lowest terms, subtraction is written larger first so the difference is never negative, and an answer landing on a whole number prints as that whole number. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
