Equivalent Fractions (C) WORKSHEET
Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
Equivalent Fractions (C) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
Begin finding equivalent fractions of unit fractions in this worksheet with either a numerator or denominator given. Section A sees students finding four fractions equivalent to one half, one third, one forth and one fifth. While section B is similar, it gives an opportunity for discussion as students see how fractions with the same numerator can be equivalent to one half, one third, one forth or one fifth. Challenge learners in section C, with a string of equivalent fractions to extend learning.

Frequently Asked Questions
This worksheet aligns perfectly with 4th grade fraction standards by focusing on unit fractions, which are the foundation for understanding equivalence. Students work with familiar fractions like 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, and 1/5, building confidence before moving to more complex equivalent relationships. The scaffolded approach helps fourth graders develop the conceptual understanding they need for future fraction work.
