    Mixed numbers worksheets for fourth grade convert in both directions: improper fractions like 7/4 become 1 3/4, and mixed numbers like 2 1/3 become 7/3. The key idea: a fraction is a sum of smaller fractions, and wholes are just groups of same-size parts.

  2. 5th grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Fifth grade runs the same conversions with larger denominators and bigger wholes, reframed as division: 23/6 means 23 ÷ 6, which is 3 with 5 left over, or 3 5/6.
