Fractions and mixed numbers worksheets Grade 6

These outstanding fractions and mixed numbers worksheets Grade 6 are given to help your kids explore all fundamental fractions exercises. Some of these include: how to place fractions on a number line, find the least common denominator, compare fractions with like and unlike denominators, compare fractions word problems, understand fractions as division word problems, put a mix of decimals and fractions together, etc.

Before we engage in solving these amazing fractions exercises, it is vital to note that fractions are part of a whole and consist of different types based on their numerators and denominators. (The numerator is the upper part of the fraction, and the denominator is the lower part of the fraction) These types of fractions are; proper, improper, mixed, like fractions, unlike fractions, and equivalent fractions. With this in mind, you will have a fantastic time solving our worksheets, which consist of all fraction types.

It is essential to grasp fractions skills at this elementary stage, considering their importance in advanced math concepts and real-life situations, like eating, shopping, telling time, measurements, etc. Let's choose amongst the many fractions exercises in this resource and determine how and why we compare fractions.

First, to find out which of the two fractions is greater or less, we need to find out if

• The fractions have the same denominators. If the denominators of the two fractions are the same, the larger fraction is the one with, the larger numerator, while the smaller fraction is the one with the smaller numerator. For instance ¾ > ¼

• The fractions have unlike denominators: To compare fractions with unlike denominators, you must find the least common denominator (LCD). When the denominators are the same, it will be easy for you to determine greater, less, or equal fractions.

Secondly, finding out if two or more fractions are equal is the simplest form of comparing fractions. You simply need to ensure that the two fractions' numerators and denominators are equal or the same. For instance ¾ = ¾

Above all, we must also note the relationship between mixed numbers and fractions.
