Equivalent Fractions Using Bar Models (A) WORKSHEET

Suitable for Grades: 4th Grade
CCSS: 4.NF.A.2
CCSS Description: 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 Using Bar Models (A) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Throughout this worksheet students will color in bar models to help them decide whether pairs of fractions are equivalent or not. In questions 1 to 8 the bar models are already constructed. In the final two questions students will have to draw their own bar models to compare 2/4 and ½ and ¾ and ⅝.

All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Math.

Frequently Asked Questions

This worksheet combines visual learning with hands-on activities, which is perfect for 4th graders who are still developing their understanding of fraction concepts. The coloring component keeps students engaged while they work through the mathematical reasoning needed to identify equivalent fractions. Bar models provide a concrete way to see why fractions like 2/4 and 1/2 represent the same amount.
