What a question looks like

- Simplify to 5/36.
Use this practice well
Use this mixed sheet after learners have practised each operation separately. Ask them to name the operation and predict whether the answer should be larger or smaller before calculating.
What this develops
Create mixed fraction arithmetic with answers shown in simplified form.
A mistake to watch for
Applying the same numerator-and-denominator rule to every fraction operation produces incorrect sums and differences.
Ways to use it
- Review several fraction operations together.
- Prepare a short diagnostic set.
- Compare strategies with the worked key.
Scope and limits
