Fraction Worksheets
Free printable fraction worksheets. Add, subtract and multiply fractions with like or unlike denominators, with an answer key in lowest terms.
Printable fraction practice covering addition, subtraction and multiplication on one sheet. Both operands are proper fractions, denominators go up to twelve, and answers are given in lowest terms as mixed numbers rather than left improper.
Denominators are mixed by default, so some problems can be added straight across and others need a common denominator found first - which is the judgement students actually have to make. Narrow it with the Denominators setting when you want to drill one or the other, or untick operations above to spend a sheet on a single skill.

Yes. Largest Denominator can be set to 6, 8, 10 or 12. Six keeps the numbers friendly for a first pass at common denominators.
What grade are fraction worksheets for?
Adding and subtracting with like denominators is usually fourth grade; unlike denominators and multiplying fractions are fifth.
