Using a Fraction Wall - Comparing Fractions WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet is designed to help learners understand and compare fractions using a fraction wall.
It includes a visual representation of fractions, where each row represents a whole divided into different numbers of equal parts, illustrating fractions from 1/2 to 1/12.
In Section A, students use inequality symbols to compare the sizes of 17 pairs of fractions across three questions that increase in difficulty. Section B focuses on identifying which fraction in each pair is closest to 1/2, with options like 3/4 versus 2/3.
There are more resources in our series using a fraction wall, including introducing the fraction wall, finding equivalent fractions and adding fractions. See them in the related resources below.
