Fractions are one of the more challenging math subjects introduced in 3rd or 4th grade, but often students will not master fraction arithmetic until they are nearly ready for middle school. The collection of fractions worksheets on this page start with basic skills such as identifying fractions and converting between equivalent fractions, and then progress through the four basic arithmetic operations. Each section starts with the least complex version of the problems I could devise before introducing more difficult subjects such as improper fractions, mixed numbers, reducing and finding common denominators. There are special sets of worksheets that focus on adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators, as well as converting common fractional amounts between their fraction, decimal and percent form.
I'm especially proud of some of these worksheets and they include some of the most detailed and instructive answer keys you're likely to find on fraction worksheets anywhere. When problems need different denominators or require steps like cross cancelling, you'll find those steps broken out in the answer keys. That makes these printable fraction worksheets an incredible practice resource for students to self-check their work.
A great introduction to identifying fractions using pie graphics as models. Students are asked to identify numeric forms of fractions from the graphics, or to draw their own model representations. These are the perfect worksheets to introduce fractions as early as 2nd grade or 3rd grade.

Fractions on a Number LineThese equivalent fractions worksheets teach 4th and 5th grade students how to find equivalent fractions, including both reducing fractions to lower forms as well as changing fractions to less reduced forms. By building familiarity with common equivalent fractions, students learn how to find and recognize the fractions they need when performing other types of fraction arithmetic where different denominators are required.
Equivalent Fractions WorksheetsPractice worksheets for reducing fractions. Different fraction worksheets in this section deal with reducing simple fractions, improper fractions and mixed fractions.
Reducing Fractions WorksheetsPractice worksheets for comparing fractions. The fraction problems on these sheets require kids to compare like and unlike denominators, improper fractions and mixed fractions.
Comparing FractionsWorksheets for adding fractions with common denominators, with unlike denominators, as simple fractions and as mixed fractions. Complete work with steps is shown for each problem on the answer keys.
Adding Fractions WorksheetsWorksheets for subtracting fractions with common denominators, with unlike denominators, as simple fractions and as mixed fractions. Full answer keys that show work!
Subtracting Fractions WorksheetsThese math worksheets provide practice for multiplying fractions. Includes problems with and without wholes, and with and without cross-cancelling. Every PDF fraction worksheet here has a detailed answer key that shows the work required to solve the problem, not just the final product!
Multiplying Fractions WorksheetsDividing fractions worksheets with two fraction division. Includes simple fractions, mixed fractions and improper fractions, as well as problems that make use of a cross multiply step to solve.
Dividing Fractions WorksheetsWorksheets for transforming fractions into decimals, including by the use of long division.
Fractions as Decimals WorksheetsThese fraction decimal percent worksheets teach 4th and 5th grade students how to convert between different forms for the same fraction quantity, including both reducing fractions to lower forms as well as changing fractions to less reduced forms. These are great worksheets for applying fractions to other common types of math problems, or seeing how a fraction relates to a specific decimal or percentage.
