Fraction Word Problems (w/Mixed Operations) Worksheets

Students always feel a little out of their element when they are working on scenario-based problems. As they become much better at them, they begin to see the real value that math has and the power that it can wield in the real world. In this setting we have created a series of problems over the course of the lessons and worksheets that will help your students feel comfortable with fractions in word problems from all types of different angles.

Aligned Standard: 5.NF.A.2 and 6.NS.A.1

  • Mixed Operation Fraction Word Problems Lesson - Thomas, the pizza chef, wants to know how many slices of pizza he is making for his next order.
  • Guided Lesson - Two young women are working hard in this word problem set. Julia at the deli and Marie is preparing for a track event.
  • Guided Lesson Explanation - The hardest thing with these types of problems is understanding what is being asked and charting it out.
  • Practice Worksheet 1 - The denominators of all of these problems are small to allow kids to have success with the concepts.
  • Practice Worksheet 2 - You will need to read these in depth. Again, baby steps here. The more challenging work is found below.
  • Answer Keys - These are for all the unlocked materials above.

Homework Sheets

The problems on these sheets use a specific operation so that you can pinpoint any weaknesses that exist.

  • Homework 1 - Add - Jean makes a special snack for Sandra. It contains 1/4 cup flax seed, 3/8 cup Olive oil and 1/2 cup of oats. How many cups is Sandra's special snack?
  • Homework 2 - Subtract - Jeff walked 2/3 of a 1 mile hike. How much farther does Jeff have to go to complete the hike?
  • Homework 3 - Multiply - Gretchen collects teddy bears. 1/1 of the collection of teddy bears she received for her birthday. 1/2 of her birthday collection are large teddy bears. How much of her overall teddy bear collection are large teddy bears?
  • Homework 4 - Divide - A lemonade pitcher has 12 cups of lemonade. If you pour a 1/2 cup as a serving how many servings are in the pitcher?

Practice Worksheets

We followed the same sequence here with the use of math operations.

  • Practice 1 - Add - Tina loves to read. On Monday she read 6/3 pages, on Tuesday she read 12/6 pages and on Friday she read 24/6 pages. How many pages did she read?
  • Practice 2 - Subtract - Josh marches 2/4 mile on Monday. How far does he need to march on Friday to make it 1 mile?
  • Practice 3 - Multiply - Cliff collects antique farm equipment. 5/8 of his collection are tractors. Of these tractors 1/5 of them are in working order. How much of his whole collection are working tractors?
  • Practice 4 - Divide - A bag of grain has 12 coffee cups of grain. If you pour a 1/3 of a coffee can as a serving how many servings are in the bag?

Tips for Fraction Word Problems

Word problems that involve fractions are often considered difficult for students resulting in reluctance in attempting the questions. Yes, they are a bit more complex than the normal word problems. However, using the right tips and rules, these questions can be solved by any student. All you need to do is practice. Let's try understanding certain examples.

Multiplying Fraction word problems: While at a bakery, a woman purchased bought half a pound of chocolate fudge cake. She ate that cake at night after dinner around 1/4 of it. How much is left?

Dividing Fraction Word Problem: Jamal's mother made his favorites, peanut butter caramel fudge cake around 1/3 of pound. She divided the fudge into four equal pieces. How much cake will go into each container?

1. You need to read the problem carefully at first. Circle any keywords that may indicate a math operation. For addition, some commonly used terms include: both, in all, increase, and total. Subtraction: difference, fewer, take away, and less. Multiplication: product, times, and lots. Division: each, every, and shared. Give it another read, if you are still not able to understand.

2. Explain the problem in your own words to someone else (a friend or a teacher). It may help to draw a picture.

3. Translate this into an equation or an expression that indicates what we are trying to find. Practice the same problem with different variables and numbers. Students learn how to handle word problems that include and use fractional values.

4. Solve the problem and make sure that you are using the proper units. The value you calculate should answer the question posed by the problem.

Quick Operation Review with Fractions

When you are working with word problems that involve fractions it is good to refer back to the basic foundation of the math that is required. The universal rule when working with these types of problems is to ensure that you are working with fraction values that share a common denominator. The beauty of this is that you do not have to worry about using the least common denominator at first as long as you reduce the final fraction. Find a common denominator between the values that you find easy to work with. When you have both values in that format, addition and subtraction are simple. Just add the numerators for addition and subtract the numerators for subtraction. The denominator will not change. The operation just takes place at the numerator level. When it comes to multiplication, we do not need to worry about finding a common base, just multiply the numerators and denominators of the fractions together. Division is much the same divide the numerators and the denominators. Those are the basic rules you will need to follow when processing these problems. The biggest challenge when working with these types of problems is determining which operation you will need to work with based on the situation. If you look for common keywords, you can quickly establish the type of math that is involved. For addition look for the words: combine(d), increase, join, together, and total. For subtraction look for the words or phrases: decrease, difference, left over, less than, reduce, remove, and take away. For multiplication look for the words or phrases: by, per, product of, and times. For division look for the words: average, equal parts, out of, ratio, shared, and split.

How to solve fraction word problems involving addition, subtraction, and multiplication? To solve fraction word problems involving addition, subtraction, and multiplication, you’ll need to follow a systematic approach and apply the appropriate operations to the given fractions. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Steps to Solve Fraction Word Problems with Addition, Subtraction, and Multiplication:

  • Carefully read the word problem to understand the context and what it’s asking you to find. Identify the given information, the operations required (addition, subtraction, multiplication), and the unknowns.
  • If the problem involves mixed numbers, convert them to improper fractions for easier calculation. Multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator to get the new numerator. Keep the same denominator.
  • Based on the problem statement, perform addition, subtraction, or multiplication of the fractions. Use common denominators when adding or subtracting fractions.
  • Simplify the Result (If Needed): If the result is an improper fraction, consider simplifying it to a mixed number if necessary.
  • After performing the calculations, double-check your answer to ensure it makes sense in the context of the problem. Verify that your answer matches the requirements of the problem.

Integers Worksheets

Welcome to the integers worksheets page at Math-Drills.com where you may have a negative experience, but in the world of integers, that's a good thing! This page includes Integers worksheets for comparing and ordering integers, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing integers and order of operations with integers.

If you've ever spent time in Canada in January, you've most likely experienced a negative integer first hand. Banks like you to keep negative balances in your accounts, so they can charge you loads of interest. Deep sea divers spend all sorts of time in negative integer territory. There are many reasons why a knowledge of integers is helpful even if you are not going to pursue an accounting or deep sea diving career. One hugely important reason is that there are many high school mathematics topics that will rely on a strong knowledge of integers and the rules associated with them.

We've included a few hundred integers worksheets on this page to help support your students in their pursuit of knowledge. You may also want to get one of those giant integer number lines to post if you are a teacher, or print off a few of our integer number lines. You can also project them on your whiteboard or make an overhead transparency. For homeschoolers or those with only one or a few students, the paper versions should do. The other thing that we highly recommend are integer chips a.k.a. two-color counters. Read more about them below.

Comparing and Ordering Integers

problem solving with fractions worksheet

For students who are just starting with integers, it is very helpful if they can use an integer number line to compare integers and to see how the placement of integers works. They should quickly realize that negative numbers are counter-intuitive because they are probably quite used to larger absolute values meaning larger numbers. The reverse is the case, of course, with negative numbers. Students should be able to recognize easily that a positive number is always greater than a negative number and that between two negative integers, the one with the lesser absolute value is actually the greater number. Have students practice with these integers worksheets and follow up with the close proximity comparing integers worksheets.

  • Comparing Integers Worksheets Comparing Positive and Negative Integers (-9 to +9) Comparing Positive and Negative Integers (-15 to +15) Comparing Positive and Negative Integers (-25 to +25) Comparing Positive and Negative Integers (-50 to +50) Comparing Positive and Negative Integers (-99 to +99) Comparing Negative Integers (-15 to -1)

By close proximity, we mean that the integers being compared differ very little in value. Depending on the range, we have allowed various differences between the two integers being compared. In the first set where the range is -9 to 9, the difference between the two numbers is always 1. With the largest range, a difference of up to 5 is allowed. These worksheets will help students further hone their ability to visualize and conceptualize the idea of negative numbers and will serve as a foundation for all the other worksheets on this page.

Adding and Subtracting Integers

Two-color counters are fantastic manipulatives for teaching and learning about integer addition. Two-color counters are usually plastic chips that come with yellow on one side and red on the other side. They might be available in other colors, so you'll have to substitute your own colors in the following description.

Adding with two-color counters is actually quite easy. You model the first number with a pile of chips flipped to the correct side and you also model the second number with a pile of chips flipped to the correct side; then you mash them all together, take out the zeros (if any) and behold, you have your answer! Need further elaboration? Read on!

The correct side means using red to model negative numbers and yellow to model positive numbers. You would model —5 with five red chips and 7 with seven yellow chips. Mashing them together should be straight forward although, you'll want to caution your students to be less exuberant than usual, so none of the chips get flipped. Taking out the zeros means removing as many pairs of yellow and red chips as you can. You can do this because —1 and 1 when added together equals zero (this is called the zero principle). If you remove the zeros, you don't affect the answer. The benefit of removing the zeros, however, is that you always end up with only one color and as a consequence, the answer to the integer question. If you have no chips left at the end, the answer is zero!

Subtracting with integer chips is a little different. Integer subtraction can be thought of as removing. To subtract with integer chips, begin by modeling the first number (the minuend) with integer chips. Next, remove the chips that would represent the second number from your pile and you will have your answer. Unfortunately, that isn't all there is to it. This works beautifully if you have enough of the right color chip to remove, but often times you don't. For example, 5 - (-5), would require five yellow chips to start and would also require the removal of five red chips, but there aren't any red chips! Thank goodness, we have the zero principle. Adding or subtracting zero (a red chip and a yellow chip) has no effect on the original number, so we could add as many zeros as we wanted to the pile, and the number would still be the same. All that is needed then is to add as many zeros (pairs of red and yellow chips) as needed until there are enough of the correct color chip to remove. In our example 5 - (-5), you would add 5 zeros, so that you could remove five red chips. You would then be left with 10 yellow chips (or +10) which is the answer to the question.

These worksheets include groups of questions that all result in positive or negative sums or differences. They can be used to help students see more clearly how certain integer questions end up with positive and negative results. In the case of addition of negative and positive integers, some people suggest looking for the "heavier" value to determine whether the sum will be positive of negative. More technically, it would be the integer with the greater absolute value. For example, in the question (−2) + 5, the absolute value of the positive integer is greater, so the sum will be positive.

In subtraction questions, the focus is on the subtrahend (the value being subtracted). In positive minus positive questions, if the subtrahend is greater than the minuend, the answer will be negative. In negative minus negative questions, if the subtrahend has a greater absolute value, the answer will be positive. Vice-versa for both situations. Alternatively, students can always convert subtraction questions to addition questions by changing the signs (e.g. (−5) − (−7) is the same as (−5) + 7; 3 − 5 is the same as 3 + (−5)).

Multiplying and Dividing Integers

problem solving with fractions worksheet

Multiplying integers is very similar to multiplication facts except students need to learn the rules for the negative and positive signs. In short, they are:

In words, multiplying two positives or two negatives together results in a positive product, and multiplying a negative and a positive in either order results in a negative product. So, -8 × 8, 8 × (-8), -8 × (-8) and 8 × 8 all result in an absolute value of 64, but in two cases, the answer is positive (64) and in two cases the answer is negative (-64).

Should you wish to develop some "real-world" examples of integer multiplication, it might be a stretch due to the abstract nature of negative numbers. Sure, you could come up with some scenario about owing a debt and removing the debt in previous months, but this may only result in confusion. For now students can learn the rules of multiplying integers and worry about the analogies later!

Luckily (for your students), the rules of dividing integers are the same as the rules for multiplying:

Dividing a positive by a positive integer or a negative by a negative integer will result in a positive integer. Dividing a negative by a positive integer or a positive by a negative integer will result in a negative integer. A good grasp of division facts and a knowledge of the rules for multiplying and dividing integers will go a long way in helping your students master integer division.
