5nf1
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.
5nf1

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.
5nf5b
Estimate the product of two fractions without doing exact multiplication. Round fractions to easy benchmark fractions like 0, 1/2, 1, or whole numbers to make mental math quicker. Use compatible numbers to get a close estimate for a fraction multiplication problem. Decide which estimate makes the most sense by comparing it to the answer choices.
5nf4a
Multiply two fractions to find the product. Convert between mixed numbers and improper fractions when needed to multiply.
5nf4b
Multiply two fractions to find the product. Use shaded area models or grids to show what it means to multiply fractions.
5nf4a
Multiply a fraction by a whole number to find the total amount. Use a number line to show equal jumps of a fraction and count how many jumps you make.
5nf6
Multiply two fractions to find a product. Cross-cancel common factors between a numerator and the other fraction’s denominator before multiplying. Use factor pairs to spot numbers that can be reduced.
5nf7a
Solve division problems where a unit fraction is divided by a whole number (like 1/3 ÷ 6).
5nf7a
Divide a unit fraction by a whole number to find how much each group gets. Use a picture model to show how a fraction is split into equal parts. Connect the visual model to the rule that dividing by a whole number makes the denominator larger.
5nf7a
Divide a unit fraction by a whole number to find an equal share. Use the idea that dividing by a whole number makes the fraction smaller. Rewrite division of fractions as multiplication by the reciprocal to solve.
5nf7b
Understand what it means to divide by a unit fraction using a picture or model. Use visual models to see how many 1/b-sized parts fit into a given fraction or whole amount. Connect the visual model to the idea that dividing by a unit fraction makes the answer larger.
5nf3
Practice reading a fraction as a division problem (numerator divided by denominator).
5nf7b
Divide a whole number by a unit fraction like 1/2 or 1/5. Use the idea that dividing by a unit fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. Find quotients that are whole numbers and understand why the answer gets larger when you divide by a fraction less than 1.
5nf7c
Divide a whole number by a unit fraction like 1/2 or 1/5. Use the idea that dividing by a unit fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.
5nf7a
Divide a fraction by a whole number to find how much each equal share is. Use a number line to show the division by splitting a fraction-length segment into equal parts.
5nf7a
Divide a unit fraction (like 1/3 or 1/8) by a whole number. Use a number line to show how a unit fraction is split into equal parts. Write the answer as a fraction and connect it to the number line model.
5nf7b
Divide a whole number by a unit fraction like 1/2 or 1/4. Use a number line to show equal jumps of a unit fraction and count how many jumps fit in the whole number. Explain the quotient as “how many 1/n parts are in this many wholes.”
