Which fraction is equivalent to \(\dfrac{3}{5}\)?
Multiply top and bottom by 4: 12 over 20.
Simplify \(\dfrac{28}{42}\).
The HCF of 28 and 42 is 14, giving 2 over 3.
Write \(\dfrac{11}{3}\) as a mixed number.
11 divided by 3 is 3 remainder 2.
Work out \(\dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{1}{6}\).
3/6 + 1/6 = 4/6 = 2/3.
Work out \(\dfrac{3}{4} - \dfrac{1}{3}\).
9/12 - 4/12 = 5/12.
What is \(\dfrac{5}{8}\) of 40?
40 divided by 8 is 5; 5 times 5 is 25.
Work out \(\dfrac{2}{3} \times \dfrac{3}{8}\).
6/24 = 1/4.
Work out \(\dfrac{4}{5} \div \dfrac{2}{5}\).
4/5 x 5/2 = 20/10 = 2.
Which fraction is the largest?
With denominator 24: 18, 16, 14, 15. So 3/4 is the largest.
Work out \(1\dfrac{1}{4} \times 2\).
5/4 x 2 = 10/4 = 2 1/2.
How to use these Year 7 fractions multiple choice questions
First, read each question carefully before you look at the four answers. Then work the answer out on paper, so that you do not simply guess. After that, read the explanation, even when you are right. If you score less than 7 out of 10, go back to the fractions lesson.
Finally, practise more with the fractions worksheet and the quiz. Moreover, all the pages of this chapter work together, so you can move between them at any time. For example, many pupils read the lesson on Monday, practise on Wednesday and test themselves on Friday.
