Description

Differentiating between multiplication and division in fraction word problems and correctly applying the algorithm is an important operation and problem solving skill under the Common Core and Texas TEKS. Scaffold student understanding of this difficult skill with an engaging math center activity.

Use resource for small group instruction or as an independent student center to help your students master multiplication and division of fractions, including mixed numbers.

Google Sheets Virtual Learning task card set now included for online learning!

This resource includes:

  • 16 paired real-world word problems.
  • a work mat to guide students through the problem solving process.
  • equation cards to scaffold students through the multiplication and division algorithm, including finding the reciprocal and writing numbers as improper fractions.
  • an answer key to make checking student work easier. All answers on the key are in simplest form and as a mixed number when appropriate.
  • A link to a Virtual Learning version with self-checking and self-grading task cards in Google Sheets

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, create a story context for (2/3) ÷ (3/4) and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient; use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that (2/3) ÷ (3/4) = 8/9 because 3/4 of 8/9 is 2/3. (In general, (𝘢/𝘣) ÷ (𝘤/𝘥) = 𝘢𝘥/𝘣𝘤.) How much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 3/4-cup servings are in 2/3 of a cup of yogurt? How wide is a rectangular strip of land with length 3/4 mi and area 1/2 square mi?
