Fractions Equivalent to One Third WORKSHEET
Fractions Equivalent to One Third WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
Continue the progress of your learners by now, considering fractions equivalent to one-third.
Section A asks students to state what fraction of each shape is shaded and then if they can identify any images which also show one-third shaded. There is room for thought as students are asked, "what do you notice?" thus encouraging students to think about how they can identify fractions equivalent to one-third in the future.
Section B takes this a step further by asking learners to shade in a third of 5 different images.
A fraction wall is introduced in section C to give students variety in the representation of fractions and enables them to see clearly how different fractions can be equivalent. This would be a good time to discuss any other equivalent fractions they can see.
Finally, in section D, students put all of their learning together to find fractions equivalent to one-third when they are given either a numerator or a denominator.
All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.

Frequently Asked Questions
Students must be comfortable with stating what fraction of a shape is shaded and shading a certain fraction of a shape before tackling this resource. These foundational skills are essential as the early sections build directly upon this knowledge, asking learners to identify shaded fractions and then actively shade shapes themselves. Without these basics firmly in place, students will struggle to engage meaningfully with the concept of equivalent fractions.
