Unit Rates Involving Fractions WORKSHEET

Suitable for Grades: 7th Grade
CCSS: 7.RP.A.1
CCSS Description: Compute unit rates associated with ratios of fractions, including ratios of lengths, areas, and other quantities measured in like or different units. For example, walk 1/2 mile in 1/4 hour yields a rate of 2 miles per hour.

Unit Rates Involving Fractions WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

This worksheet focuses on helping learners calculate and compare unit rates in real-world scenarios, all involving fractions. The worksheet is divided into four sections.

In Section A, students will find the multiplicative inverse of unit and non-unit fractions and integers in preparation for calculating unit rates.

Section B guides learners through solving unit problems which increase in difficulty but the context remains the same, promoting understanding of how fractions work within proportional relationships.

Section C challenges students to determine unit rates for given problems such as “A painter paints 3/10 of a room in ¾ of an hour. How much of the room would the painter paint in 1 hour”.

Finally, in Section D students will use unit rates to make comparisons.
