Fractions Worksheets Grade 5 Explanations
Q.1) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
On Cross Multiplication
We multiply 11 x 3 = 33
Similarly, we multiply 3 x 5 = 15
The Fraction whose Numerator has higher value, after multiplication, is greater Fraction
Since, 33 > 15
Hence,
Correct Answer – b)
Q.2) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
On dividing 59 by 10
We get, Quotient = 5
Remainder = 9
For a mixed Fraction we have to write Quotient +
So, the mixed Fraction is 5 + 
Correct Answer – c)
Q.3) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
A combination of Whole Number and a Proper Fraction is called a Mixed Fraction
Here, Mixed Fraction =
Whole Number Part = 3
Numerator = 2
Denominator = 3
Step 1 : Multiply the Whole Number Part and Denominator of the Mixed Fraction
3 x 3 = 9
Step 2 : Add the Numerator to the product obtained in Step 1
2 + 9 = 11
Write the sum as the numerator and denominator would remain the same , as in the Mixed Fraction.
Hence,
Correct Answer – a)
Q.4) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
In order to Divide one fraction by another, we can multiply the first Fraction with the reciprocal of the second Fraction
Reciprocal of second Fraction 
or we can say
Now, on simplifying it
= 
Multiply all the Numerator together and all the Denominator together.
=
Correct Answer – c)
Q.5) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
To get a Fraction equivalent to a given Fraction, we multiply or divide the Numerator and the Denominator of the given Fraction by the same number (except 0 or 1)
Fraction 1 : 
Fraction 2 : 
Fraction 3 : 
Hence, three Equivalent Fractions of
Correct Answer – c)
Q.6) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
Given :
On Cross multiplication, we get
20 x 46 = y x 23
920 = 23y
40 = y
Or, y = 40
Hence, the missing number is = 40
Correct Answer – a) 40
Q.7) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
To reduce the fraction into its simplest form, we take the HCF of Numerator and Denominator i.e
15 and 60 are divided by the common factor 15 and the Numerator 21 and Denominator 7 are divided by common factor 7 .
The remaining Numerator 3 and the Denominator 4 do not have a common factor and cannot be simplified. so, multiply all the Numerator together and all the Denominator together.
We get,
Correct Answer – b)
Q.8) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
Numerator is the Upper Number , in the Fraction
So, the Numerator of 
Denominator is the bottom number in the Fraction
So, the Denominator of
Correct Answer – a) Numerator 14 , Denominator 11
Q.9) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
Total number of children in the class = 60
It is given that,
Number of boys =
On simplifying it
Number of boys = 
Number of boys = 50
Number of girls = Total number of children in the class – Number of boys
Number of girls = 60 – 50
Number of girls = 10
Correct Answer – b) Number of boys = 50 , Number of girls = 10
Q.10) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
Part of jar which is full =
Since, we don’t know the total part , we assume it to be
The part of the bucket that is empty = Total part – Filled part
=
Taking the LCM of 1 and 15 = 15
=
=
=
Hence, the empty part of the bucket =
Correct Answer – a)
Q.11) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
Difference of Like Fraction =
=
=
So, the difference of
Correct Answer – a)
Q.12) Explanation –
To find the difference of Unlike Fraction
Firstly, we have to change the Unlike Fraction into equivalent Like Fraction, and then subtract the two equivalent Like Fraction
Take LCM of 6 and 12 is 12
Converting the Unlike Fraction into Equivalent Like Fraction
We have to multiply Numerator and Denominator of
We have to multiply Numerator and Denominator of
Now 
Hence, the answer is
Correct Answer – a)
Q.13) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
Sum of Like Fraction =
=
=
Hence, the sum of
Simplifying further,
HCF of 9 and 15 is 3
Dividing both Numerator and Denominator by their HCF i.e,
Hence, the sum of
Correct Answer – c)
Q.14) Explanation – Fractions Worksheets Grade 5
In order to add Unlike Fraction
Firstly, we have to change the Unlike Fraction, into equivalent Like Fractions, and then add the two equivalent Like Fractions
Take LCM of 3 and 2 is 6
Converting the Unlike Fraction into Equivalent Like Fraction
We have to multiply , both the numerator and denominator of
Similarly, we have to multiply , both the numerator and denominator of
Now 
Hence, the sum of
Correct Answer – a)
