This worksheet systematically develops students' skills in solving linear equations involving fractions.
Section A challenges students to identify the correct first step for various fractional equation types.
Section B consists of 8 minimally different and increasingly difficult equations to solve. This helps students to see how small changes affect the order of inverse operations and gradually builds confidence to solve complex equations.
There are a further 6 equations to be solved in Section C which do not follow the same structure as in Section B.
Solutions to equations are positive and negative throughout as well as integer, fractions and decimal numbers.
