Fractions on Number Line Worksheets 3rd Grade

Here you will find a selection of free fraction worksheets designed to help your child understand the value of fractions as numbers.

Using these sheets will help your child to:

• understand visually how much fractions are worth;
• select the correct position on different number lines to identify the correct fraction;
• to find simple equivalences between common fractions using number lines.

The first set of worksheets is all about placing a set of fractions on their correct positions on the correct number line.

The second set of worksheets involves finding simple fraction equivalences using number lines.

These worksheets are perfect for developing an understanding of fractions as parts of numbers.

They are aimed at 3rd graders and have been placed in order of difficulty.

The sheets are designed as follows:

• Sheet 3A involves filling in the missing fractions. Most fractions are already shown.
• Sheet 3B involves filling in all the missing fractions. None of the fractions are shown.
• Sheet 3C involves filling in 10 different (mainly unit) fractions. None of the fractions are shown. The number lines are in order of fraction size.
• Sheet 3D and 3E involve filling in 10 different fractions. The number lines are all mixed up.

These worksheets are perfect for developing an understanding of equivalent fractions using number lines.

They are aimed at 3rd graders.

Sheet 3A involves finding fraction equivalences using pre-filled fraction number lines.

Sheets 3B involves filling in the missing fractions and then finding the fraction equivalences.

Sheets 3C involve filling in all the fractions and then finding the fraction equivalences.

Here you will find a selection of printable Fraction lines designed to help your child understand visually how much fractions are worth.

The support sheets are also great for learning about equivalent fractions.

Using these sheets will help your child to:

• develop an understanding visually of how much fractions are worth.
• compare two fractions;
• begin to learn about fraction equivalence.

Here is our collection of decimal number lines.

Using these sheets will help your child to:

• see visually the order of decimal numbers in a number line;
• understand place value of decimals.

Before you learn about finding fractions of numbers, you should be confident with fractions as parts of a whole.

Here you will find a selection of Fractions of Shapes Worksheets designed to help your child understand fractions of shapes as parts of a whole.

Using these sheets will help your child to:

• develop an understanding of fractions as parts of a whole;
• work out the fractions of shapes.

Often when we are talking about and using fractions, we are looking at fractions of numbers or quantities.

To find a fraction of a number or quantity, we need to first divide the number or quantity by the denominator. Then multiply this by the numerator to give the answer.

The printable learning fractions page below contains more support, examples and practice finding fractions of numbers.
