Set 1. Prints on its own sheet.
It practises dividing by the simplest unit fractions — 12 questions for Grade 5, all on Common Core 5.NF.B.7: Divide with fractions. The instruction to pupils is “Work out each answer”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.NF.B.7 — 5.NF.B.7, in the Number & Operations — Fractions domain for Grade 5. The published standard reads: “Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
Halves, Thirds and Quarters is written for Grade 5, typically ages 10-11. It is one of the sheets on 5.NF.B.7, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Yes. All 12 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
25 — one per pupil, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
Yes. Halves, Thirds and Quarters, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
